The scaffold, A: close up of the scaffold used for annulus fibrosus closure. B: SEM image of scaffold showing fiber surface and the porous design. Cell migration and survival and thus new tissue formation, is dependent on the scaffolds design features. These scaffolds were made on a 3D printer that allows control of fiber thickness, fiber pattern and pore size.
