Markerless intraoperative tracking of spinal anatomy via RGB-D sensors is a promising alternative to invasive bone-anchored fiducials, yet no existing clinical dataset provides independent subsurface ground truth for validating these methods. We address this gap with a clinically viable pipeline that derives per-vertebra 6-DoF pose from routine intraoperative C-arm fluoroscopy, co-registered to the RGB-D camera frame through a multimodal fiducial array detectable in both imaging modalities. Critically, the pipeline requires no additional radiation, instrumentation, or deviation from standard surgical workflows, relying solely on the fluoroscopic images already acquired during routine level checks. A calibrated transform chain links the vertebral pose recovered via multi-view 2D-3D CT-to-fluoroscopy registration to the RGB-D coordinate frame, enabling direct comparison of any markerless registration estimate against a subsurface reference. Ex vivo validation against optically tracked ovine vertebrae confirms end-to-end accuracy of 2.06 +- 0.29 mm and 3.35 +- 0.93 degrees, sufficient to serve as independent ground truth for methods with substantially larger errors. We demonstrate the pipeline's utility by evaluating two markerless registration strategies on clinical data spanning 11 vertebrae across 1,500 frames from three surgical sequences: the first such evaluation against an independent subsurface reference in a clinical setting. The proposed framework provides reusable infrastructure for benchmarking emerging markerless tracking methods on real surgical data.
