Abstract :
In order to study the biomechanical mechanism properties of intervertebral disc herniation, combining the CT and MRI data-based anatomical structure of spine. A three-dimensional geometric model of the lumber disk was constructed. Based on the geometric model, a three-dimensional finite element modeling (FEM) for biomechanical analysis has been created. The FEM will represents a promising tool in clinical diagnosis and optimizing individual therapy in the intervertibral disc herniation
