Imaging of Musculoskeletal Disorders - Degenerative disc disease
Degenerative disc disease – L-Spine MRI (Same patient as plain X-ray above) Unlike on the X-ray, the intervertebral discs are clearly visible with MRI; This T2-weighted MRI image shows reduced fluid signal within the discs; the discs appear blacker than usual – compare with the normal disc at T12/L1; The discs are bulging and reduced in height
ABCs of the degenerative spine - Insights into Imaging
2018年3月22日 · On MRI, the hyperintense signal of the nucleus on T2-weighted images (WI) has been shown to correlate directly with the proteoglycan concentration in the nucleous pulposus and signal loss of the disc correlates with progressive degenerative changes [13, 14].

Patterns of Lumbar Disc Degeneration: Magnetic Resonance …
Intervertebral lumbar disc degeneration (LDD) is a common finding on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The prevalence of LDD was reported to range from 26%–91% depending on the age of the patient population [1 – 5]. The reported association between low-back pain and LDD ranged from mild to strong [1, 3, 6, 7].
Imaging of lumbar degenerative disk disease: history and
2011年8月17日 · One of the most common indications for performing magnetic resonance (MR) imaging of the lumbar spine is the symptom complex thought to originate as a result of degenerative disk disease. MR imaging, which has emerged as perhaps the modality of choice for imaging degenerative disk disease, can readily demonstrate disk pathology, degenerative ...
MR imaging of degenerative disc disease
Magnet resonance imaging (MRI) is the most commonly used imaging modality for diagnosis of degenerative disc disease (DDD). Lack of precise observations and documentation of aspects within the complex entity of DDD might partially be the cause of poor correlation of radiographic findings to clinical symptoms.
