Abstract:
The scope of computer tomography in the diagnosis of abnormalities in the lumbar spine was investigated in 100 patients with lumbar pain. Computer tomography was found to be superior to other diagnostic procedures in demonstrating bony narrowing of the spinal canal. It can be used as an alternative to myelography for the demonstration of disc prolapse.
