3 Radiolucent zones at the pedicle screw sites on anteroposterior radiographs (Fig. 2-A) and CT scans (Fig. 2-B) were graded on a 6-point scale (range, 0 to −5; see Appendix) as shown. Tokumi Kanemura et al. J Bone Joint Surg Am 2014;96:e82 ©2014 by The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, Inc.

4 Radiolucent zones around the interbody cage (Fig. 3-A) and the osseous spur anterior to the intervertebral disc (Fig. 3-B) on sagittal CT scans were graded on a 6-point scale (range, 0 to −5 and 0 to 5, respectively; see Appendix) as shown.

5 Longitudinal changes in maximum range of motion (ROM) of the intervertebral disc on lateral flexion-extension radiographs were significant as determined by ANOVA. The mean and standard deviation at each time point are shown for five patients who showed ≥5°... Tokumi Kanemura et al.
