Summary Of Background Data: Fusion surgery has been used to treat chronic low back pain caused by degenerative disk disease (DDD). The traditional pedicle screw system made of titanium, though biocompatible, can lead to complications, such as stress shielding and implant failure.
Background: Traditionally, pediatric pneumonia is diagnosed through clinical examination and chest radiography (CXR), with computed tomography (CT) reserved for complications.
