Biomechanics of the Spine
A CME-accredited online short spine course
Enrolment Fee:
€132
This short spine course gives a comprehensive overview of the complex biomechanics of the spine and spinal instrumentation, as well as of deformed and degenerative spine conditions.
It aims to encourage researchers to intensify their research endeavours and to offer clinicians knowledge to improve their understanding of the spine pathology when planning treatment modalities.
The course is particularly helpful to spine surgeons and non-surgeon specialists when making up a proper treatment plan on the basis of an in-depth understanding of the structure and functionality of the spine as a multiarticular part of the human locomotor system, and to estimate the prognosis and the risks of the treatment choice.
