Reliability (Revalidation) of MSU MRI Classification of Lumbar Disc Herniation in 100 Patients Series: Severity and Objective Surgical Criteria
Background Data: Success rate of discectomy is greatly variable between surgeons due to lack of clear categorization of lumbar disc patients. Valid radiological objective criteria are required especially for patients with uncertain surgical indication to help in pre-operative patient assessment, sur...
