Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates include adult patients (18 years and older) scheduled for single-level vertebral cementoplasty at the Strasbourg University Hospital.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who have undergone multiple-level vertebroplasties or have a history of spinal surgery near the affected area may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This observational study evaluates the impact of continuous visual monitoring of fluoroscopy time on the radiation dose delivered to patients undergoing single-level vertebral cementoplasty at the Strasbourg University Hospital. The study aims to collect data from approximately 1,000 procedures performed annually to assess how monitoring can potentially reduce radiation exposure. By focusing on a standardized and frequently performed procedure, the research seeks to enhance patient safety and improve procedural outcomes.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to reduced radiation exposure for patients undergoing vertebral cementoplasty.
How similar studies have gone: While this approach is focused on monitoring fluoroscopy time, similar studies have shown that reducing radiation exposure during interventional procedures can improve patient safety.
