## Abstract We are developing a new spinal implant system (SIS) without fusion (bone graft). This SIS is made from two materials, metal and polyetheretherketone (PEEK) polymer. The Food and Drug Administration recommended testing __in vivo,__ in an animal model, whether the PEEK polymer could be us

## Abstract A study was performed to determine whether an implanted, inductively coupled nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) imaging spine coil could provide a significant gain in signal‐to‐noise ratio (SNR) on images of the spinal cord relative to the SNR of optimized surface coils. Implanted coils w
