In this study, an attempt was made to characterize the full field facet capsular ligament strains during pure bending moments in the sagittal plane and in the presence of a pretorque. Measurements of capsular strains at failure were compared to the strains observed in these tests. As a result, the risk of capsular damage during physiologic motions was determined.
