AI Based Metal Artifact Reduction-PMAR

The study is going to enroll about 220 consecutive patients with screws in lumber spine after internal fixation surgery who underwent follow-up assessment using Incisive CT according to the department standard of care. Retrospective data sets will be reconstructed into conventional image, the O-MAR algorithm, and Precise-MAR. Three blinded, independent radiologists evaluate both qualitative and quantitative analysis of image quality of surrounding tissue and artifact. Statistical analysis included the Friedman test, Wilcoxon signed-rank test, and Levene test.
