Abstract
The simulation that uses the finite element method aiming at the clarification of the appearance of disease mechanism of the cervical spondylotic myelopathy and the grasp of the stress of spinal cord for the treatment method selection is being done now. However, a necessary dynamic characteristic of pia matter of the spinal cord has not been elucidated enough. In this study, pig's dynamic characteristic of pia matter was obtained. And, the state of the stress of spinal cord was analyzed by the FEM simulation that assumed the spinal cord pressure by making of the ligament thickening.
