Endoscopic spine surgery is a burgeoning component of the minimally invasive spine surgeon’s armamentarium. The goals of minimally invasive, and likewise endoscopic, spine surgery include providing equivalent or better patient outcomes compared to conventional open surgery, while minimizing soft tissue disruption, blood loss, postoperative pain, recovery time, and time to return to normal activities. A multitude of indications for the utilization of endoscopy throughout the spinal axis now exist, with applications for both decompression as well as interbody fusion. That being said, spinal endoscopy requires many spine surgeons to learn a completely new skill set and the associated learning curve may be substantial. Fluoroscopy is most common imaging modality used in endoscopic spine surgery for the localization of spinal pathology and endoscopic access. Recently, the use of navigation has been reported to be effective, with preliminary data supporting decreased operative times and radiation exposure, as well as providing for improvements in the associated learning curve. A further development is the recent interest in combining robotic guidance with spinal endoscopy, particularly with respect to endoscopic-assisted lumbar fusion. While there is currently a paucity of literature evaluating these image modalities, they are gaining traction, and future research and innovation will likely focus on these new technologies.
