This podcast highlights the most current published research in the field of spinal surgery. Updates in Spinal surgery podcast provides a summary of multiple studies from peer reviewed published medical literature. The goal of this podcast is to produce a media which improves the access to current spine literature for practicing surgeons and health care providers.
