Abstract
Scientific advances in the past decade have generated considerable cli
nical interest in developing biologic tools that may ultimately enhanc
e spinal fusion. This article reviews the current understanding of eac
h of these and other fusion-enhancing tools with particular attention
to the results of in vivo animal experimentation and, where available,
objective clinical data.
