- Values are expressed as mean ± SD
- The point “O” represents the most secure operating center during the PETLIF procedure
- The point “D” represents the intersection of the horizontal line of the point “O” with the vertical line passing through the center point of the L5 pedicle; values of the “ED/EF” are the ratio of the distance from the point “D” to the center point of the L5 pedicle to the vertical distance from the center point of the L5 pedicle to the upper edge of the sacrum; values of the “DO” are the horizontal distance from the point “O” to the vertical line passing through the center point of the L5 pedicle; values of the “OP” are the distance from the point “O” to the upper edge of the sacrum
