Felon Submitted to the Graduate Faculty as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Science Degree in Bioengineering The University of Toledo December 2010 Finite Element spine models have been created to simulate disc degeneration in the past; however they have not taken into account physiology and how other levels are affected by a change at another level. Here in lies the problem with those models. Several models were created to explore how physiological changes change an experimental validated L3/S1 spine model. Physiological conditions taken into account included Poisson’s ratio of nucleus, tearing of the annulus and physiologically relevant compressive loads on the spine. Much was learned through this process and a final set of three models were created and biomechanically evaluated. The model with the greatest degeneration was also “graded” based on clinical grading schemes and studies. The model was capable of simulating motion similar to cadaver studies done by others. It showed increased pressure in the disc and loading on the facets as the model was farther degenerated. Finally, based on the clinical grading schemes and studies, the large degenerated disc model was determined to be a grade IV degeneration of the L4/5 disc. iii For my ever supporting parents, Darrell & Karen, and all my family and friends who encouraged me along. For all the moms in my life who kept on me to finish, thank you. iv Acknowledgements This thesis would not have been possible without the help and support of my advisor, Dr. Goel, and all my lab mates. I thank them for their help and entertainment over the years. I’d like to thank my family for all the love and support for my education over the years, especially my parents, who have showed me what love and devotion look like. I’d like to thank my brothers of Theta Tau and sisters of the UT softball team. You definitely made my college experience better and more educational than just book learning and I thank you for that.

However, pain costovertebral associated with rib articulation dysfunction is reported to occur in human patients. The anatomic costotransverse structures of the canine rib joints and thoracic spine are similar to those of humans. As such, it is ribs physical therapy proposed that extrapolation from human physical therapy practice could be used for the assessment and rehabilitation treatment of the canine patient with presumed rib joint pain. This article presents 3 case studies that manual therapy demonstrate signs of rib dysfunction and successful treatment using primarily physical therapy manual techniques.

  • The Lumbosacral Dorsal Rami of the Cat
    J. Anat. (1976), 122, 3, pp. 653-662 653 With 1O figures Printed in Great Britain The lumbosacral dorsal rami of the cat NIKOLAI BOGDUK Department ofAnatomy, University ofSydney, Sydney, Australia (Accepted 2 December 1975) INTRODUCTION Several reflexes involving dorsal rami have been demonstrated in the cat (Pedersen, Blunck & Gardner, 1956; Bogduk & Munro, 1973). However, there is no adequate description in the literature of the anatomy of lumbosacral dorsal rami in this animal. The present study was therefore undertaken to provide such a description, hoping thereby to facilitate the design and interpretation of our own (Bogduk & Munro, 1973) and future research on reflexes involving lumbosacral dorsal rami, including reflexes possibly relevant to the understanding of back pain in man. These nerves are described in the present study in relation to a revised nomen- clature of the muscles in the dorsal lumbar region. Such a revision (Bogduk, 1975) was necessary because of the different nomenclatures and varied interpretations in the literature. METHODS Six laboratory cats (Felis domesticus) were embalmed with 10° formalin and studied by gross dissection. In addition, confirmatory observations were made on another 16 cats in the course of surgical procedures. Lateral branches of dorsal rami were first identified during reflexion of the skin and then during the resection of iliocostalis and longissimus lumborum. These branches were subsequently traced back to their origins from the dorsal rami, a dissecting microscope being used. The medial branches of the dorsal rami were then traced through the intertransversarii mediales into multifidus. Sinuvertebral nerves were also sought. Nerve roots were detached from the spinal cord before removing it from the vertebral canal.
