Objectives : To investigate the relationship between cervical intervertebral space narrowing in the X-ray and HIVD level of cervical spine in the CT image.
Methods : We studied 101 subjects who were taken cervical spine X-ray and CT. Intervertebral space were measured at the anterior, middle and posterior portion of each cervical disc in the X-ray. Considering individual difference, intervertebral space was set as value divided by upper width of lower vertebral body. We analyzed statistically adjusted intervertebral space of normal group and herniated disc group using student’ t t-test.
Results : Intervertebral space of cervical spine was narrowed in the herniated disc group. But there was no significant difference at C2∼C3.
Conclusions : We found that narrowing intervertebral space of cervical spine is associated with herniated disc. Further clinical observation is needed.
