Background: Current methods of measuring disease progression of neurodegenerative disorders, including Parkinson's disease (PD), largely rely on composite clinical rating scales, which are prone to subjective biases and lack the sensitivity to detect progression signals in a timely manner. Digital health technology (DHT)-derived measures offer potential solutions to provide objective, precise, and sensitive measures that address these limitations. However, the complexity of DHT datasets and the potential to derive numerous digital features that were not previously possible to measure pose challenges, including in selection of the most important digital features and construction of composite digital biomarkers.

Introduction: Cervical foraminotomy is a procedure used to treat patients with radiculopathy. While the procedure can be performed using a minimally invasive technique, achieving complete visualization of relevant anatomy can be challenging. This study explores the use of patient-specific three-dimensional (3D) printed anatomical models, created from advanced medical imaging data, for preoperative planning and intraoperative guidance in cervical foraminotomy by comparing fluoroscopy time, operative time, estimated blood loss volume, and functional improvement.
