Figure 4. Regional compressive biomechanical properties.

Figure 4

The inferior (I) and superior (S) surfaces were evaluated in the posterior (P), lateral (L), intermediate zone (IZ), medial (M), and anterior (A) regions. Deformed discs had a statistically significant increase in compressive modulus. Regional variations were not significant in post-hoc testing. Significant region-deformation differences are denoted with # (p<0.01) and significant surface-regional variations are denoted with * (p<0.02).
