AI to improve CT scan quality after spinal surgery
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This trial tests a new AI technology that improves the quality of CT scans by reducing the blurring or streaks caused by metal implants like screws in the spine. The goal is to get clearer images to help doctors see better after spinal surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You have screws in your lower back from a surgery to fix the spine.
- You have had a follow-up CT scan after that surgery.
- You do not have any other metal objects in your body that could affect the scan.
- You stayed still during the CT scan (no movement that could blur the images).

This study is testing whether an artificial intelligence program can find broken bones in the spine (vertebral fractures) by looking at CT scans of the chest or abdomen. The goal is to see if AI can help doctors spot these fractures more easily, which could lead to earlier treatment.
This trial compares an artificial-intelligence system to standard surgeon planning for placing screws in a broken hip (femoral neck fracture). It tests whether AI can improve the placement of screws that hold the bone together during healing.
This study tests an artificial intelligence model that helps create clearer images from a lower-dose CT scan, which could mean less radiation exposure during your procedure. It aims to improve image quality while keeping radiation doses as low as possible.
This study looks at the use of a special CT scanner during surgery on the lower back to help doctors assess whether the spine is stable after fusion. It may help improve surgical outcomes for people with degenerative spine disease.
This trial tests whether an AI tool can help doctors spot brain aneurysms more accurately on head CT scans. If you are scheduled for a head CT scan, the AI may assist in detecting aneurysms earlier.
This study tests an AI system that helps doctors read brain CT and MRI scans. If you had a brain scan for possible tumors, stroke, injury, or other conditions, your data could be used to improve this tool.
