"Here we quantify the #3D #anatomy of the #lumbosacral region of the common #quail, focusing on establishing the #geometric and #biomechanical properties relevant to potential #mechanosensing functions."

My illustrations were recently published in JNS Spine for the article, “Impact of dual-headed pedicle screws on the biomechanics of lumbosacral junction multirod constructs” written by @BarrowNeuro resident, Dr. Jakub Godzik. Check it out online! #spinesurgery #spine #medicalart
“Evidence suggests that #birds possess a novel balance sensing organ in the lumbosacral spinal canal, a structure referred to as the “lumbosacral organ” (LSO), which may contribute to their #locomotor agility & #evolutionary success.”
