This course will cover technological, as well as operative and non-operative advances in the treatment of spinal disease. Topics will include novel non-fusion options for the treatment of back pain, regenerative technologies, artificial intelligence, surface technology, expandable cage technology, advanced application of navigation and robotics. Many of these innovations have the potential to improve surgical efficiency, safety and outcomes. Attendees will gain a better understanding of the basis for these technologies and techniques, its applications clinically, evidence for the technologies, outcomes and costs.
