Abstract
Image-guided technology has transformed spinal surgical interventions, in this review article the author attempts to understand the
interactions with the most commonly used 3D system with the intraoperative cone beam CT, and develop a smooth workflow surgical plan. The
system facilitates complex surgeries, minimizes radiation exposure to OR staff, and has advantages for minimally invasive surgeries. Aiming for
safer surgeries, and understanding that navigation error is an interaction between technology and human factors.
