The Hemisection Approach in Large Animal Models of Spinal Cord Injury: Overview of Methods and Applications

Introduction: Translating basic science research into a safe and effective therapy for spinal cord injury (SCI) requires suitable large animal models for testing both implantable devices and biologic approaches to better approximate human anatomy and function. Hemisection lesions, routinely used for...
