Apparent diffusion coefficient values in Modic changes – interobserver reproducibility and relation to Modic type
Dagestad, Magnhild Hammersland; Vetti, Nils; Kristoffersen, Per M; Zwart, John Anker Henrik; Storheim, Kjersti; Bakland, Gunnstein; Brox, Jens Ivar; Grøvle, Lars; Marchand, Gunn Hege; Andersen, Erling; Assmus, Jörg; Espeland, Ansgar (BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders;23, Article number: 695 (2022), Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-07-22)Background: Modic Changes (MCs) in the vertebral bone marrow were related to back pain in some studies but have uncertain clinical relevance. Difusion weighted MRI with apparent difusion coefcient (ADC)-measurements can ... -
