The value of cervical MRI in surgical lumbar canal stenosis patients
Background The prevalence of cervical canal stenosis alone is estimated to be present in 4.9% of the adult population. Co-existence of dual pathology may complicate clinical presentation and necessitates a wise and individually based decision process ...

Lumbar interspinous process fixation and fusion with stand-alone interlaminar lumbar instrumented fusion implant in patients with degenerative spondylolisthesis undergoing decompression for spinal stenosis [PDF]
STUDY DESIGN: Prospective cohort study. PURPOSE: To assess the ability of a stand-alone lumbar interspinous implant (interspinous/interlaminar lumbar instrumented fusion, ILIF) associated with bone grafting to promote posterior spine fusion in ...

In this paper, we investigate the effect of body weight on the lumbar spine with different spinal canal sizes when humans bend down by using the finite element method. Lumbar spinal stenosis is the narrowing of the spinal canal.

Validity of MRI Measurements in Lumbar Spinal Canal Stenosis
Background:Lumbar spinal canal stenosis results from compression of spinal cord and/or nerves at any level of lumbar vertebra. The relationship between clinical features of the patients and the degree of stenosis is not clear and there is no ...

Verification Of Measurements Of Lumbar Spinal Dimensions In T1- And T2-weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging Sequences [PDF]
BACKGROUND CONTEXT: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is commonly used to assess patients with lumbar spinal stenosis. No single MRI sequence has been shown to be superior in spinal canal measurements.
