Area of Science:

  • Biomechanical Engineering
  • Comparative Anatomy
  • Veterinary Surgery

Background:

  • Developing surgical treatments for spine conditions requires accurate biomechanical assessments.
  • Canine cervical spines share similarities with human spines, making them a suitable model for research.
  • Existing models may not fully capture the complex mechanical and kinematic properties of the cervical spine.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To create and validate a numerical model of the canine cervical spine for surgical research.
  • To provide a tool for studying cervical spine conditions and surgical interventions in canines.
  • To enable basic research applicable to both veterinary and human spinal surgeries.

Main Methods:

  • Computed tomography (CT) scans of a Doberman Pinscher's cervical spine were used to create a 3D model.
  • Vertebral segmentation and 3D modeling were performed using Mimics and Rhinoceros software.
  • Finite element analysis (FEA) in Abaqus simulated the spine's response to external loads, validated against radiographic data.

Main Results:

  • The finite element method (FEM) model demonstrated mechanical behavior highly consistent with the physiological canine spine.
  • Minor discrepancies were observed, such as a 5.95% difference in C6-C7 dorsiflexion and -3.09% in C4-C5 ventroflexion.
  • Validation against radiographic measurements showed a high degree of conformity between the numerical model and real canine spines.

Conclusions:

  • The validated numerical model provides a reliable tool for basic research in cervical spine surgery.
  • FEA results show high conformity with experimental data, indicating minimal error in the model.
  • While valuable, the model is a simplification and cannot fully replicate in vivo dynamics or individual tissue effects.
