Identification of elastic modulus of the porcine ligamentum flavum by tensile test
In order to predict how much the human ligamentum flavum (LF) will be deformed during insertion of an epidural needle, the elastic modulus of a porcine LF was determined with a tensile test. LF specimens collected from porcine spines in a slaughterhouse were prepared into a rectangular shape with co...
