Journal ArticleDOI
Magnetic resonance classification of lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration.
TL;DR: Disc degeneration can be graded reliably on routine T2-weighted magnetic resonance images using the grading system and algorithm presented in this investigation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Achilles Tendons: Clinical Relevance of Neovascularization Diagnosed with Power Doppler US
Marco Zanetti,Alexander Metzdorf,Hans-Peter Kundert,Hans Zollinger,Patrick Vienne,Burkhardt Seifert,Juerg Hodler +6 more
TL;DR: Although neovascularization is a specific sign for pain, it does not indicate an unfavorable outcome and Conversely, tendon inhomogeneity seems to be associated with a unfavorable outcome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of aging and degeneration on disc volume and shape: A quantitative study in asymptomatic volunteers
TL;DR: It can be concluded that disc degeneration generally results in a decrease of disc height and volume as well as a less convex disc shape in the absence of disc degenerations, however, age tends to result in an inverse relationship on disc height, volume, and shape.
Journal ArticleDOI
Osteotomy of the Margo Medialis Scapulae to Approach Subscapular and Subrhomboid Tumors. A Technical Note
TL;DR: Elevation of the muscles inserting into the medial scapular margo with a small rim of bone facilitates refixation and allows for excellent restitution of function.
