StereoCheck vs SSS2023

Check your Cartesian stereotactic coordinates with an independent system ! StereoCheck is a mobile application designed to compute target coordinates using several hardware manufacturers frames and models. WARNING : Do not use StereoCheck for surgical decision making. Do not use StereoCheck as the primary planning or computation system, it is intended to be a verification system. StereoCheck is also a valuable educational tool for beginners in the field of stereotaxy. The present version of StereoCheck has support for FiMe, Bramsys, Leksell, CRW, Micromar, Macom, inomed-ZD, Brainlab, Estereoflex and Adeor-Zeppelin frames. StereoCheck main axis are: latero-lateral (X), dorso-ventral (Y) and caudal-rostral (Z). The mathematical algorithm used by StereoCheck includes corrections for tilted images (rotation around X and/or Y axis) as long as nine fiducials are present in the image. There is correction for rotation around Z up to 5 degrees. Linear image distortions are also corrected. Step-By-Step: Take a photo of your stereo-CT or stereo-MR or enter the image into the camera roll using any available way. StereoCheck work with axial (transverse) CT slices only, there is no support for coronal or sagittal views. Select the stereotactic frame and model being used. For some frames, such as FiMe and Bramsys, the fiducials orientation must be defined. Select the image from the camera roll. Mark each fiducial on the image. StereoCheck use nine (9) fiducials, except for Brainlab frame, that uses only six (6). If you are using a ZD system, ignore the occipital fiducials. Mark the target point you want to reach and tap the Done button. At this point the stereotactic coordinates will be computed and displayed. If you want to keep a copy of results for your records, use the Compose button on top of the screen to send them by e-mail.

I would like to welcome you to the 7th Annual conference of the (SSS ) promoting Excellence in Multidisplinary spine care at Jeddah Hilton I especially want to welcome our colleagues and guests coming from outside Jeddah and Saudi Arabia. Some of you will travel far in order to be with us, and I am very pleased that you accepted our invitation and decided to join us. This is the 7th annual successful conference and the first open, we are planning this year to use Virtual and in person attending system for all the audiences from inside and outside Saudi Arabia. Our purpose from this conference to give opportunity for all professionals from all over the world to interact with each other and exchange their experience together, we invited many international and regional spine associations to give a special and uniquity for this conference It will be three full days of actions and information for everybody to cover most of the subjects of spine and its challenges, in addition to the workshop which will be held during the second day of the conference. We selected highly skilled and professional speakers from allover the world to exchange their expertise and knowledges with everybody. This conference will run with many conference's rooms to cover all the specialties, our target audience (orthopedic, neurosurgery, neurology, intervention radiology, physiotherapy. anesthesia, pain service, rehabilitation, nursing, technicians and others) , we will have a suitable sections for researches and researchers to present their papers after review the papers by the scientific committee, our language will be simple and speak- able for everybody to be sure we will introduce all the information in understandable and easy way, we will make this conference unforgettable under the cover of Jeddah the Bride of the Red Sea. I would like to extend my thanks to Dr. Khalid batterjee the Chairman of Organizing committee and great thanks to Dr. Fahad Alabduljabar the chairman of scientific Committe for their dedicated work and effort of making this annual conference happen. Finally we look forward to see you soon Dr. Mandi Bassi
