The Globus-M and now -M2 are primarily for scientific research and technology demonstration. They show the potential for spherical tokamaks to generate hybrid fusion-fission nuclear power.

Background We compared the perioperative results and complications associated with PLIF and TLIF, and collected evidence for choosing the better fusion method. Methods A literature survey of the ...
