Computational pharmacokinetics of solute penetration into human intervertebral discs-Effects of endplate permeability, solute molecular weight and disc size
A finite element model is developed to predict the penetration time-history of three different solutes into the human lumbar disc following intravenous injection. Antibiotics are routinely administered intravenously in spinal surgery to prevent disc infection. Successful prophylaxis requires antibio...
