What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Bone Fusion With CT and Dynamic radiographs(X-ray)(Post operative 6 Months)
Time Frame: at 6 months after surgery (ACDF)
Evaluation of bone fusion between bone substitutes and cervical vertebral endplates with 3-dimensional CT and X-ray at 6 months after operation (ACDF).
at 6 months after surgery (ACDF)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
VAS of Neck Pain(Post operative 6 Months)
Time Frame: at 6 months after surgery (ACDF)
Evaluation of neck pain using the visual analogue scale (VAS) at 6 months after operation (ACDF). Reported pain using VAS was recorded and evaluated. Patients were instructed to make a mark on a horizontally-oriented, 10-point VAS labeled "no pain (zero point)" at the far left and "greatest pain (ten point)" at the far right.
at 6 months after surgery (ACDF)
