In vitro Analysis of the Intradiscal Pressure of the Thoracic Spine

The hydrostatic pressure of the nucleus pulposus represents an important parameter in the characterization of spinal biomechanics, affecting the segmental stability as well as the stress distribution across the anulus fibrosus and the endplates. For the development of experimental setups and the val...
