Abstract

To improve the treatment of spinal disease, it is essential to fully comprehend the biomechanical
properties of the healthy human spine in both genders. But for each sex, the rotational ranges of motion (ROM)
differ. Therefore, our objective is to examine, for the models of both sexes, the motion of the lumbar spine
segment as Comparing the range of motion in the lumbar segment between boys and
females at different intervertebral levels
measured by range of motion (ROM). A lumbar spine CT image is converted into a simulation model to initiate
the process. The investigation looks at how the human lumbar segments (L1-S1) react to a pure-moment
loading in terms of axial torsion (AT), lateral bending (LB), and flexion extension (FE). The lower lumbar
levels contain the greater FE ROM next to
