Electrochemical measurement of transport into scoliotic intervertebral discs in vivo using nitrous oxide as a tracer.
STUDY DESIGN: An in vivo study measuring nitrous oxide concentrations in scoliotic intervertebral discs during surgery. OBJECTIVES: To determine pathways for nutrient transport into scoliotic human discs in vivo. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: The intervertebral disc is the largest avascular structure...
