[Magnetic resonance tomography in the diagnosis of the neurological complications of lumbar osteochondrosis].

The analysis of results of magnetic resonance tomography was performed in 289 patients with neurological complications of lumbar osteochondrosis. Among such patients radicular and reflectoral syndromes were observed in 184 patients while diskogenic lumbar-sacral radiculomyeloischemias--in 105 ones. The high informativity of the method was demonstrated in visualisation of localisation, direction and sizes of intervertebral disks' hernias at lumbar osteochondrosis as well as in establishment of such factors which predisposed diskogenic radiculomyeloischemias' development.
