Journal ArticleDOI
Magnetic resonance imaging of the lumbar spine in people without back pain.
Maureen C. Jensen,Michael Brant-Zawadzki,Nancy A. Obuchowski,Michael T. Modic,Dennis Malkasian,Jeffrey S. Ross +5 more
TL;DR: On MRI examination of the lumbar spine, many people without back pain have disk bulges or protrusions but not extrusions, and the discovery by MRI of bulging disks in people with low back pain may frequently be coincidental.
Journal ArticleDOI
Degenerative disk disease: assessment of changes in vertebral body marrow with MR imaging.
TL;DR: Signal intensity changes appear to reflect a spectrum of vertebral body marrow changes associated with degenerative disk disease in patients referred for lumbar spine MR imaging.
Journal ArticleDOI
Imaging of degenerative disk disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vertebral osteomyelitis: assessment using MR.
Michael T. Modic,D. H. Feiglin,David W. Piraino,Francis Boumphrey,Meredith A. Weinstein,Paul M. Duchesneau,Susan J. Rehm +6 more
TL;DR: The MR appearance of vertebral osteomyelitis in this study was characteristic, and MR was as accurate and sensitive as radionuclide scanning in the detection of osteomyalitis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lumbar degenerative disk disease.
Michael T. Modic,Jeffrey S. Ross +1 more
TL;DR: Understanding the relationship of etiologic factors, the morphologic alterations, which can be characterized with imaging, and the mechanisms of pain production and their interactions in the production of symptoms will require more accurate and reproducible stratification of patient cohorts.
