Diagnostic Tools and Imaging Methods in Intervertebral Disk Degeneration

Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2011
Low back pain has a negative impact on the economy and society. Intervertebral disk degeneration is linked to the occurrence of low back pain. MRI provides three-dimensional morphologic and biochemical information regarding the status of the disk. This article reviews new and evolving MRI disk-imaging techniques, including grading, relaxation-time ...

Autophagy: A double-edged sword in intervertebral disk degeneration

Clinica Chimica Acta, 2016
Autophagy is a homeostatic mechanism through which intracellular damaged organelles and proteins are degraded and recycled in response to increased metabolic demands or stresses. Although primarily cytoprotective, dysfunction of autophagy is often associated with many degenerative diseases, including intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration (IDD).

This chapter reviews the mechanical function and failure of lumbar intervertebral discs. Disc herniation is essentially a bending injury to the annulus that can also involve the nucleus and vertebral endplate. Injuries to the annulus and vertebral body endplate create two distinct ‘phenotypes’ of disc degeneration: annulus driven and endplate driven ...
