Olympic-level female gymnasts received prospectively an MRI exam of the lumbar spine. Each of the gymnasts underwent a physical exam by a sports medicine physician just prior to the MRI for documentation of low back pain. Each MRI exam was evaluated for anterior apophyseal ring avulsion injury,...

There is well recorded overuse of MRI in this scenario which goes against evidence‐based practice and adds to rising healthcare costs. Methods The study was a retrospective review of lumbar spine MRI scans performed within a community‐based setting over an 18﹎onth period. The review took a...

Slice overlap/interference Why are there dark bands over the lumbar spine? The dark bands you see are signal dropout due to the use of multiple overlapping oblique slices. Protons in the overlapped areas receive double, triple, or higher levels of RF-irradiation than those in single slices else...
Building new or adapting existing spine multibody simulation (MBS) models is time-consuming due to their complex structure. To overcome this limitation, we developed a simple, efficient method by which to automatically adjust the lumbar curvature orientation of the spine model. The method extracts a...
This was created as part of my master's thesis which was submitted on 9 November 2023. Showcase Below three spines can be seen which were automatically segmented from MRI images using this library. (a) shows sacralization (lack of lumbar vertebra L5), (c) shows lumbarization (additional ...
