Influences of Endplate Removal and Bone Mineral Density on the Biomechanical Properties of Lumbar Spine

PURPOSE: To investigate (1) effects of endplate removal and bone mineral density (BMD) on biomechanical properties of lumbar vertebrae (2) whether the distributions of mechanical strength and stiffness of endplate are affected by BMD. METHODS: A total of thirty-one lumbar spines (L1-L5) collected fr...
