The internal mechanical properties of cervical intervertebral discs as revealed by stress profilometry

Extensive anatomical differences suggest that cervical and lumbar discs may have functional differences also. We investigated human cervical discs using "stress profilometry". Forty-six cadaveric cervical motion segments aged 48-90 years were subjected to a compressive load of 200 N for 20...
