Abstract:PurposeComposite models have become commonplace for the assessment of fixation and stability of total joint replacements; however, there are no comparable models for the cervical spine to evaluate fixation. The goal of this study was to create the framework for a tunable non‐homogeneous model of cervical vertebral body by identifying the relationships between strength, in‐fill density, and lattice structure and creating a final architectural framework for specific strengths to be applied to the model.MethodsTh… Show more
