Disc degeneration is a common type of lumbar disc disease. Disc degeneration leads to low back pain, and it is caused due to injury in Intervertebral Disc (IVD). An automatic diagnostic system to diagnose degenerative discs from T2-weighted sagittal MR image is proposed. A fully automated ...
Treatment for painful degenerative disc disease focuses on minimizing pain, stabilizing the spine, and improving or maintaining mobility. Degenerative disc disease can usually be treated with a combination of pain management techniques, physical therapy, and other approaches. Lumbar Degenerative Disc ...
