Interbody fusion cage design using integrated global layout and local microstructure topology optimization.

Study Design: An approach combining global layout and local microstructure topology optimization was used to create a new interbody fusion cage design that concurrently enhanced stability, biofactor delivery, and mechanical tissue stimulation for improved arthrodesis.Objective: To develop a new inte...
