Abstract:
Objective To study the developmental patterns and aging characteristics of anterior intervertebral disc and spinal canal based on anatomy CT scan and three dimensional reconstruction imaging measurement in the adolescents ages from 12 ~18 years old,and to provide the anatomical basis for the treatment and prevention of disc herniation diseases.Methods A total of 30 adolescents,who were with normal spines and without any the problems of nervous system,were selected to do CT scan of lumbosacral vertebrae through dual-source 64-slice spiral CT.CT original data of lumbosacral,which were translated into DICOMformat,were measured and analyzed statistically with Mim-ics software.Results There was no significant difference among the intervertebral disc and the superior sagittal diameter of the spinal canal, which were not influenced by gender (P >0.05).The intervertebral disc and the superior sagittal diameter of the spinal canal would increase with age with wavy trends,and there were some significant differences(P <0.05).Conclusion The anatomy parameters of lumbosacral disc and spinal changed regularly.In order to achieve satisfactory results of the lumbosacral disease treatment,it must be combined with individual radiographic findings,biomechanics and materials science,etc.
