Robotic Simulation of Disc Arthroplasty Surgery: Influence of Surgical Placement on Motion Segment Dynamics
… demonstrated that intact motion segment unit (MSU) mechanics and range of motion (ROM) were sensitive to the location of a prescribed sagittal plane rotational axis. Mal-alignment between the implant COR and the COR of the MSU may lead to an overloaded or over constrained condition.</p> <p>Two …

A Kinematics-Based Testing Protocol to Study the Mechanics of the Human Lumbar Spine
… the human cadaveric lumbar motion segment unit (MSU) in response to specific kinematic inputs. Modern, non-fusion spinal devices claim to treat degenerative disc disease better than traditional fusion surgery. Though there have been many biomechanical studies completed on these devices, there is …
