Biomechanics of the human intervertebral disc: a review of testing techniques and results

TL;DR: An overview of the studies conducted and their contribution to the current understanding of the biomechanics and function of the IVD is presented in a way that should prove useful to experimentalists and computational modellers.
Journal ArticleDOI

An in vivo study of the primary and coupled rotations of the thoracic spine

TL;DR: The pattern of coupled motion in the thoracic spine demonstrated some variability between subjects in vivo, and an ipsilateral pattern predominated between lateral flexion and axial rotation in the middle and lower Thoracic regions while the upperThoracic region was found to exhibit either a contralateral or ipsilaterally pattern.

Biomechanics of the human intervertebral disc: A review of testing techniques and results

TL;DR: Many experimental testing techniques have been adopted in order to provide an understanding of the biomechanics of the human intervertebral disc (IVD) and their contribution to our current understanding as mentioned in this paper.

Cervical spine motion in the sagittal plane: Kinematic and geometric parameters

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used one lateral-view X-ray for each of five neck positions: full flexion, full extension, and three intermediate positions, and various parameters were derived to describe two types of data: kinematic (angles and centers of rotation), and geometric (pattern of curvature).
Journal ArticleDOI

Reliability of thoracic spine rotation range-of-motion measurements in healthy adults.

TL;DR: The seated rotation, bar in front, and lumbar-locked rotation tests may be used reliably when more than 1 examiner is obtaining measurements and had good reliability and low levels of measurement error.

Lumbar Intradiscal Pressure: Experimental Studies on Post-Mortem Material

TL;DR: In this article, the Lumbar Intradiscal Pressure (LIP) was measured using post-mortem material and the results showed that the LIP was significantly higher than the LBP of the postmortem material.
