Abstract: A method for determining an acceptable spinal surgical plan for a subject using pathology prediction, comprising generating a potential spinal surgical plan, obtaining clinically relevant data of the subject, obtaining pre-operative three-dimensional images of a spinal region of the subject, determining relationships between pairs of vertebrae in the images, predicting relationships between pairs of vertebrae that are expected from the surgical plan, accessing a multiple patient database, obtaining sets of data from the database for patients with similar characteristics to the subject, determining risks of pathology types for the subject, using artificial intelligence to combine the determined risks to calculate an overall risk for pathology types for the subject, and if the overall risks are unacceptable, selecting an alternative spinal surgical plan, and if the said overall risks are acceptable, determining that said surgical plan is acceptable.

Abstract: A method for optimizing orthopedic spinal implant survival using preoperative finite element analysis combined with intraoperative stress analysis. Based on clinically relevant data, finite element analysis, and corrected values of spinal parameters, an acceptable long-term stress score is determined for an appropriate implant, which is selected from a set of potential implants, such that the shape of the implant minimizes predicted stress values. From a preoperative medical image set, values of selected spinal alignment parameters are determined; finite element analysis is performed on potential implants to determine stress values; and a selected implant is digitally positioned in the medical image set to create a virtual bone/implant configuration. After the selected implant is inserted and bent to shape, actual stress values are measured intraoperatively. The process of bending and measuring stress values is repeated until the bone/implant configuration falls within the acceptable long-term stress score range.

Abstract: An exemplary method of determining a surgical spinal correction for a subject using analysis of motion capture images of the subject, which uses the steps of obtaining pre-operative three-dimensional images of a spinal region, obtaining a pre-operative time sequenced set of images of the subject during a movement progression of said subject, calculating in a plurality of the motion capture images, alignment parameters relating to upper and lower body regions of the subject, and determining if any of the calculated alignment parameters are outside their predetermined acceptable ranges in one or more of the images, iteratively adjusting anatomical elements in three-dimensional images until all of the calculated alignment parameters are within their predetermined acceptable ranges; and adjusting spinal anatomy in the three-dimensional images according to the degree of adjustment of spinal parameters in the motion capture images to determine a surgical spinal correction.

Abstract: A method of planning the correction of spinal deformations of a subject, by performing segmentation on a three dimensional image of the subject's spine in its erect neutral position, such that the positions and orientations of the vertebrae in a region of interest are characterized. Parameters relating to the alignment and position of the vertebrae are derived from the segmentation, followed by determining whether the parameters fall within an acceptable range desired for the spine of the subject. If not within the acceptable range, an alignment optimization is performed on the vertebrae to bring the parameters within the acceptable range, to reduce the spinal deformations of the subject's spine. The alignment optimization is performed by taking into consideration limitations arising from the dynamic range of motion of the vertebrae as determined by analyzing images of the subject's spine, while the subject is in positions of maximum bending.
