    Real-time sonography effectively delineated various spinal lesions during surgery. This imaging technique proved reliable for guiding surgical approach and assessing treatment adequacy in diverse spinal conditions.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurosurgery
    • Medical Imaging
    • Spinal Surgery

    Background:

    • Intraoperative imaging is crucial for spinal surgery.
    • Real-time guidance can optimize surgical outcomes.
    • Sonography offers a non-invasive imaging modality.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the utility of real-time sonography during spinal surgery.
    • To assess sonography's ability to delineate intraspinal lesions.
    • To determine sonography's role in guiding surgical approach and evaluating treatment adequacy.

    Main Methods:

    • Real-time sonography was performed in eight adult patients undergoing spinal surgery.
    • Imaging was conducted prior to dural opening using saline for water-path imaging.
    • Cervical, thoracic, and lumbar lesions, including extramedullary masses and intramedullary cavities, were examined.

    Main Results:

    • Sonography successfully delineated five extramedullary masses and two intramedullary cavities.
    • The imaging allowed for determination of optimal surgical access.
    • Repeat sonography before dural closure evaluated treatment adequacy in select cases.

    Conclusions:

    • Real-time sonography is a reliable and beneficial tool during surgery for various intraspinal lesions.
    • Sonography aids in delineating lesions and optimizing surgical strategy.
    • The technique can be used to assess the adequacy of surgical intervention.
