Figure 2From: Effects of cord pretension and stiffness of the Dynesys system spacer on the biomechanics of spinal decompression- a finite element study Disc annulus stress. Stress at L3-L4 (A) and L2-L3 (B). Values for the INT are not presented because the data were normalized to the INT with the difference divided by INT values presented as a percentage.Back to article page
