Rikke K. Jensen, Kristina B. Dissing, Tue S. Jensen, Stine H. Clausen & Bodil Arnbak Chiropractic & Manual Therapies volume 31, Article number: 45 (2023) Abstract Background Neck pain and headache are highly prevalent conditions and leading causes of disability worldwide. Although MRI is widely used in the management of these conditions, there is uncertainty […]
Eur Spine J. 2021 Mar 21. doi: 10.1007/s00586-021-06809-0. Online ahead of print. S Rajasekaran Abstract Purpose: Inappropriate use of MRI leads to increasing interventions and surgeries for low back pain (LBP). We probed the potential effects of a routine MRI report on the patient’s perception of his spine and functional outcome of treatment. An alternate ‘clinical […]
J Gen Intern Med . 2020 Sep 28. doi: 10.1007/s11606-020-06181-7. Josephine C Jacobs PMID: 32989711 DOI: 10.1007/s11606-020-06181-7 Abstract Background: Contrary to guidelines, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is often ordered in the first 6 weeks of new episodes of uncomplicated non-specific low back pain. Objective: To determine the downstream consequences of early imaging. Design: Retrospective matched […]

The aim of this study was to evaluate long-term degenerative changes in intervertebral discs in the thoracic spine in healthy asymptomatic subjects. Summary of Background Data. Longitudinal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) […]
British Journal of Sports Medicine Volume 53, Issue 20 Adam G Culvenor Abstract Background Knee MRI is increasingly used to inform clinical management. Features associated with osteoarthritis are often present in asymptomatic uninjured knees; however, the estimated prevalence varies substantially between studies. We performed a systematic review with meta-analysis to provide summary estimates of the prevalence […]

Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery Hideyuki Sasanuma, MD, PhD DOI: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jse.2018.05.042 Background This study compared imaging findings of blood flow changes between symptomatic rotator cuff tear (RCT) and frozen shoulder (FS) by using 3-dimensional dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to determine the clinical characteristics of symptomatic RCT. Methods The 2 study groups comprised 31 […]
The Spine Journal Volume 18, Issue 5, May 2018, Pages 880-891 Laura Hill DPT Abstract Background Context Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has the potential to identify pathology contributing to neck pain. However, the importance of findings on MRI remains unclear. Purpose We aimed to investigate whether findings on cervical spine MRI predict future neck pain. […]
Authors: Jane Greening, PhD MCSP Study Design Cross-sectional study. Background Whiplash following a motor vehicle accident can result in chronic neck and arm pain. Patients frequently present with cutaneous hypersensitivities and hypoesthesia but without obvious clinical sign of nerve injury. T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has previously been used to identify nerve pathology. Objectives To […]
Musculoskeletal Science and Practice Volume 33, February 2018, Pages 67-70 Vahid Abdollah Highlights The signal intensity weighted centroid (SIWC) is a novel reliable non-invasive method for quantifying the effects of loading. Except for a more anterior SIWC in the L4L5 disc after extension, there were no significant SIWC differences. No significant differences were found in […]
Front Neurol. 2017; 8: 725. Published online 2018 Jan 9. doi: 10.3389/fneur.2017.00725 PMCID: PMC5767220 PMID: 29375466 Yeon-Hee Lee Abstract Purpose Whiplash injury can cause internal derangement of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and lead to temporomandibular disorders (TMDs). Our aim was to evaluate whether the initial clinical findings in TMD patients with whiplash injury are correlated […]
