Abstract

An analysis of radiological (CТ, MRI) spondylometric parameters of lumbar spine motion segments was conducted (120 observations). Two types and four variants of the structure of facet joints of the lumbar spine were identified. It is proposed to introduce a new parameter such as the radius of the articular facet areas into the protocol of spondylometry. These data extend the concept of «normal» for lumbar spine.

Keywords

radiological studies, spondylometry, lumbar spine, facet joints.
