Facet jointBackground Lumbar spine abnormalities, in particular stress fractures to the pars interarticularis, are common in elite junior tennis players, though the difference in prevalence between males and females remains unclear. Further, facet joint orientation appears to be a possible option for ...
Objective: This study aimed to elucidate the relationship among facet orientation, kinematics of a spinal unit, and change in lumbar spine canal diameter by using kinetic magnetic resonance imaging. Summary of Background Data: Some studies have suggested an association between increased sagittally ...
In a real human spine, the geometry is different at each spinal level, such as the curvature of the facet joint, the dimensions of the vertebrae, and the height of the vertebral discs. Even for individuals of a similar stature, variability exists in vertebral responses in the human spine. ...
The hyaline cartilage of the central region of the superior articular facet (the area of greatest concavity) increases in thickness with age, probably because this region receives much of the load during flexion of the spine (Taylor & Twomey, 1986). Also, the articular processes may fracture ...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of degenerative changes in the paraspinal muscles caused by local (prolonged compression) or systemic (high-fat diet) factors on the structure of the intervertebral discs and facet joints of the lumbar spine in rats. ...
Radiography was used to obtain the anterior and lateral images of the lumbar spine, combined with the placement of markers to accurately select the needle track. Select the appropriate needle insertion angle and mark the needle insertion position, combined with the image to measure the needle ...
