MicroSpine
is constantly attempting to further the science of spinal surgery and
treatments. Our full time research staff will work with you to obtain results
and satisfactions scores so that further validation and progress can be made.
Research takes time, and we are a private institution that doesn't receive
government monies such as universities. We have begun publicizing on several
topics and we will continue to strive to help further the science of spinal
therapies into the 21st century. Please assist us in doing our best to meet this
goal. Due to Copyright issues with potential medical journals, we
cannot post articles. Abstracts of published articles are available
below or on the MEDLINE. Complete articles that have been published
are only available through the publisher since they own the
copyright for the published material. Unpublished articles cannot be
posted on the internet since medical journals will consider this a
type of publishing and will not accept said articles once they have
been publically displayed. (i.e.- The medical journals want to
charge for any printed material that they published)
