IT Engineering into clinics
• Lumbar spine surgery leads to satisfactory short-term pain relief, but long/midterm outcomes are less positive in terms of incremental degeneration problems and pain resurgence
• We hypothesize that the lack of long term success is due to:- Incomplete understanding of the biomechanics of the lumbar
spine- Required specificity of the patient condition (geometry, disc
properties, loading, psychological profile, etc…)- A non-rationale engineering approach

MySpine objectives
• MySpine aims to create a clinical predictive tool to provide clinicians with patient-specific biomechanical and mechanobiological analysis.
• This tool will help to determine the best patient specific treatment for low back pain.
• The project will focus on disc degeneration pathology although the developed prototype system may be able to analyze other spinal pathologies as well.

Discussion
With additional resources, further analyses could investigate
• additional loadings• variability in surgery techniques• different types of screws
to provide an interval of confidence for the clinician.

Conclusions
• A patient-specific platform to analyse the biomechanical load transfer between conservative treatment, discectomy and fusion was developed.
• Using VPH-Share cloud facilities and local or cloud HPC system, any clinician can have a patient-specific biomechanical analysis in less than 11 hours.
• Remote desktop visualization and cloud computing can provide a transformative change to NHS without hardware investment.
