研究概览
简要总结
To evaluate the relationship between the volume and apparent diffusion coefficient
(ADC) value of the lumbar intervertebral discs in the setting of lower back pain.
Disc degeneration is accompanied by changes in the volume of the disc and its
microarchitecture. As the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) measures the
diffusion of water molecules in a disc, so it can be used as a quantitative parameter
to evaluate the pathological changes in a disc by measuring its water diffusion.
