    Computertomography (CT) is a reliable, non-invasive method for evaluating lumbar compression syndromes, offering superior diagnostic accuracy for herniated discs compared to myelography.

    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Medical Imaging
    • Neurosurgery

    Background:

    • Lumbar compression syndromes require accurate diagnostic methods.
    • Conventional radiography has limitations in visualizing all contributing components.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of Computertomography (CT) in diagnosing lumbar compression syndromes.
    • To compare CT with myelography for evaluating herniated discs and spinal stenosis.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized Computertomography (CT) for simultaneous axial visualization of bone and soft tissues.
    • Compared diagnostic performance of CT against myelography for lumbar pathologies.

    Main Results:

    • CT is a non-invasive, reliable method for evaluating lumbar compression syndromes.

  • CT demonstrates superior specificity and sensitivity for diagnosing herniated discs compared to myelography.
  • CT effectively identifies disc material, osseous stenosis, spinal canal stenosis, and postoperative changes.

    • Conclusions:

    • Computertomography (CT) is a highly effective tool for diagnosing lumbar compression syndromes.
    • CT offers advantages over myelography in evaluating herniated discs and spinal stenosis.
    • Myelography remains indicated when clinical symptoms are not segment-specific.
