17th International Argospine Symposium, Paris, France
31 January 2013 - 31 January 2013
France
The 17th International Argospine Symposium will take place from 31 January 2013 to 1 February 2013 in Paris, France.
Depending on where the spinal cord and nerve roots are damaged, the symptoms of a spinal cord injury can vary widely, from pain to paralysis and incontinence. In many cases, spinal cord injuries require substantial physical therapy and rehabilitation, especially if the patient's injury interferes with activities of daily life. Research into treatments includes controlled hypothermia and stem cells, though many treatments have not been studied thoroughly and very little new research has been implemented in standard care.
The conference will be a forum for surgeons looking to encourage applied research in the area of spinal surgery with a focus on biomaterials, infection and hardware, bone graft substitutes, stem cells, 3D imaging and navigation, intraoperative monitoring and neuromonitoring.For further information, please visit
