Abstract
Recent advancements in computer-assisted surgical navigation have enhanced imaging precision while reducing fluoroscopy reliance. However, integrating these systems into outpatient interventional pain practices remains costly. This paper investigates a cost-effective Augmented Reality (AR) navigation system tailored for image-guided spinal pain procedures. We verify the feasibility of AR in spinal surgery and the potential of AR to replace fluoroscopy.
