Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.

This study compares a new computer-guided system (PathKeeper) to the usual method for placing screws in the spine during open surgery. It aims to see if the new system makes screw placement more accurate.

Test a new way to predict scoliosis curve progression

This study follows adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis to see how well a new predictive model estimates whether the spinal curve will get worse over time. It may help doctors plan monitoring and treatment more accurately for young people with scoliosis.
