A new four-area method for evaluating biochemical changes in lumbar facet joint degeneration on T2* mapping

Abstract Purpose To investigate the diagnostic efficacy of a new four-area method for evaluating biochemical changes in lumbar facet joint (LFJ) degeneration on T2* mapping. Methods LFJ degeneration was morphologically graded on T2-weighted imaging using the Weishaupt system. T2* value of LFJ was me...
