To improve the scientific validity and accuracy of this study.
We studied the research methods of the article by carefully reading the article and consulting the relevant literature.
The authors questioned the routine use of MRI as a follow-up tool by statistically comparing the degree of change in MRI findings in patients with chronic low back pain over a period of less than or equal to two years.
To further enhance the scientific rigor of the study, we suggest that certain aspects could be refined, such as including a more comprehensive discussion of patient characteristics, making adjustments to the time limit for inclusion in the study, and conducting more detailed categorical comparisons of different patient populations before and after.

我们通过仔细阅读文章并查阅相关文献来研究该文章的研究方法。
作者通过对慢性腰痛患者在小于或等于两年的时间段内MRI检查结果变化程度进行统计学比较,对将MRI作为随访工具的常规使用提出了质疑。
为进一步提高研究的科学严谨性,我们建议某些方面可以加以完善,例如更全面地讨论患者特征,调整纳入研究的时间限制,并对不同患者群体前后进行更详细的分类比较。
