Correlation between high-intensity zone on MRI and discography in patients with low back pain
The aim of this study was to analyze the correlation between high-intensity zone (HIZ) on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of a lumbar disc and positive pain response assessed by discography for the diagnosis and treatment of discogenic low back pain (LBP). Thirty-seven patients aged 21 to 59 years with chronic LBP but without any neurological symptoms or lumbar disc herniation who underwent MR...

متن کاملA comparative study of trunk proprioception between patients with chronic non-specific low back pain and discopathic low back pain

Previous studies have shown that low back pain reduces proprioception due to instability in the low back. Since the degenerative process of disc herniation is one of the important factors in exacerbating ...
متن کاملCorrelation of low back pain to a high-intensity zone of the lumbar disc in Indian patients.
PURPOSE To assess the correlation between low back pain and a high-intensity zone (HIZ) of the lumbar disc in Indian patients. METHODS 200 patients with low back and/or leg pain underwent magnetic resonance imaging of the lumbosacral spine. The location and severity of pain and disability were assessed using the pain drawing, visual analogue scale, and Oswestry Disability Index, respectively....
