MRI Features of Psoas Major Muscles in Patients with Paraspinal Muscle Atrophy [PDF]

Global Spine Journal, 2015
Introduction Maintaining both lumbar lordosis and paraspinal muscle function is important for prevention of sagittal imbalance. We previously reported that the cross-sectional area of the paraspinal muscles tends to decrease with age.

Revisiting paravertebral muscles in European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) and European brown hares (Lepus europaeus) (Leporidae; Lagomorpha)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Domesticated European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) have long been chosen as laboratory model organisms. Despite this, there has been no definitive study of the vertebral musculature of wild rabbits. Relevant descriptions of well‐studied veterinary model mammals (such as dogs) are generally applicable, but not appropriate for a species ...

Redefining the Surface Anatomy of Major Abdominal Structures in an Adult Population: A Computed Tomography Evaluation

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Inconsistencies exist in anatomy and clinical reference texts regarding the vertebral levels of major abdominal structures. Accurate surface anatomy is essential for diagnostic interpretation and interventional procedures, yet little is known about how health status or pathology may influence the vertebral relationships of abdominal organs ...

MRI features of the psoas major muscle in patients with low back pain [PDF]

European Spine Journal, 2013
The purpose was to investigate the changes of the psoas major muscles (PM) cross-sectional area (CSA) and fat infiltration in the PM and to investigate the association between the morphology of the PM and expression of the degenerative changes of lumbar spine in patients with low back pain (LBP).T2-weighted scans for measurements of the CSA and ...

Utilisation of Objective and Subjective Image Quality Metrics to Guide Optimal Contrast Volumes for Abdominal CT

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Determining the appropriate volume of iodinated contrast media (ICM) for portal venous phase abdominal CT is challenging. Objective image quality assessment demonstrates weight‐based volume dosing reduces the dependence of enhancement on patient size, compared to fixed volume.
