Effect of Follower Load on Motion and Stiffness of the Human Thoracic Spine with Intact Rib Cage

Researchers have reported on the importance of the rib cage in maintaining mechanical stability in the thoracic spine and on the validity of a compressive follower preload. However, dynamic mechanical testing using both the rib cage and follower load has never been studied. An in vitro biomechanical...
