Most investigators agree that interbody cages provide good stability in flexion and lateral bending but little or no stability in extension and axial rotation [ 4 11 13 16 17 19 ] . The loss of stability in extension and axial rotation may be related to the obligatory damage to the specific anatomical structures needed for cage insertion.
These lenses were also reported to be smaller in equatorial and axial dimensions than age matched wild type lens, which was very similar to that which was observed with the double knockout lens.
The acquired pulse sequences included (a) axial T2-weighted fast spin-echo (TR/TE, 4500/80; flip angle, 90°; field of view, 24–28 cm; slice thickness, 3 mm; matrix, 256 × 256; number of excitations, 2; in-plane resolution, 1.2 mm); (b) a T1-weighted two-dimensional gradient-echo sequence obtained in different anatomical planes (TR/TE 175/1.
