Comparison of Intervertebral Disc Displacements Measured Under Applied Loading With MRI at 3.0T and 9.4T [PDF]
The noninvasive measurement of displacements under applied loading with magnetic resonance imaging (dualMRI) can be implemented on both clinical and high-field research MRI systems. dualMRI synchronizes cyclic loading applied by an MRI-compatible loading device with displacement-encoded MRI [1].

The displacement state of the posterior annulus in the intervertebral disc under flexion [PDF]
The occurrence of lumbar disc herniation is closely related to the mechanical state, and it is necessary to study the internal mechanical behavior of the intervertebral disc under different loading conditions. In this study, the unconfined experiments were conducted by applying an optimized Digital Image Correlation (DIC) technique, and the internal ...

Dynamic stiffness and damping of human intervertebral disc using axial oscillatory displacement under a free mass system [PDF]
The aim of this study was to analyse the dynamic response of the human intervertebral disc to vibration in a physiologically relevant frequency spectrum. Eight lumbar intervertebral discs were harvested. After preparation, each sample was subjected to a pre-loading and then dynamic compression (from 5 to 30 Hz).

The determinant role of the annulus fibrosus interlamellar zones in the intervertebral disc transversal and volumetric responses and hence on their corresponding three-dimensional conducts have been only revealed and appreciated recently. Their consideration in disc modeling strategies has been proven to be essential for the reproduction of correct ...

Analytical evaluation of stresses and displacements of an intervertebral disc
Understanding the intervertebral disc response to mechanical loads is important to prevent back injuries. The experimental and the finite element methods are widely used for that purpose but methodological triangulation is deficient due to lack of a complementary method. This study aims at choosing theories and assumptions that could be used to develop

EXPERIENCE OF THE OPERATIVE TREATMENT OF DOGS AT DISPLACEMENTS OF INTERVERTEBRAL DISCS
Relevance. Fractures of the spine, subluxations and dislocations, herniated discs can lead to the development of acute tetraparesis or tetraplegia as a result of bleeding and compression of the thoracolumbar spinal cord [5]. In addition to direct traumatic damage to the spinal cord, secondary neurotoxic processes develop with the formation of free ...

Intervertebral disc internal deformation measured by displacements under applied loading with MRI at 3T [PDF]
PurposeNoninvasive assessment of tissue mechanical behavior could enable insights into tissue function in healthy and diseased conditions and permit the development of effective tissue repair treatments. Measurement of displacements under applied loading with MRI (dualMRI) has the potential for such biomechanical characterization on a clinical MRI ...
