Hi ANS,
I didn`t have endplate CT scans at all. I think you're getting into a bit of higher technology here -- -- -- when really what we are doing is fairly basic.
When the distraction has been performed the surfaces of the vertebrae are cleaned, should there be any subsidence with the bone and the need cement, then that's the point it should be done.
If you feel that you've got a problem with your bones then to have a bone density test
best,
Alastair
