A novel methodology for measurement of the intradiscal pressure and height disc variation of intervertebral disc under compression

The intervertebral disc (IVD) is subjected to several types of loading during daily routine events. However, the overloading on this structure induces higher intradiscal pressure (IDP), which could cause severe damage on its structure. This study describes a new approach to monitor IDP and determine...
