Abstract:
Finite element analysis (FEA) is broadly used in biomechanics.Being widely used in clinical studies on cervical spine injury,cervical degeneration and stimulating a variety of cervical spine surgeries,cervical finite element model is becoming more and more accurate in recent years.This paper aims to review the development of cervical finite element model,to introduce the application progress of the modeling and analysis in cervical spine injury,cervical disc arthroplasty,cervical interbody fusion,cervical degeneration and cervical instability,and to prospect the foreground of cervical finite element model in future.
