Quantitative Assessment of Postoperative Lumbar Morphology Using Geometric Morphometrics: Within-Subject Changes Following TLIF and Decompression
By Amit Benady, Owen Zhou, Amit Hadad and 7 others.
Abstract
Background
Conventional radiographic assessment of postoperative lumbar alignment relies predominantly on Cobb angle measurements, which incompletely characterize global spinal morphology. We evaluated whether geometric morphometrics (GM) provides complementary quantitative information for assessing postoperative lumbar morphology after TLIF and decompression.
