Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Spiral CT scanning and multi-mode three-dimensional reconstruction exert preoperative localization, intraoperative guidance, and postoperative review in the treatment of lumbar intervertebral disc herniation.
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of spiral CT scanning and multi-mode three-dimensional reconstruction on lumbar intervertebral disc herniation so as to find a reasonable therapy.
METHODS: A computer-based search of PubMed and Wanfang databases were conducted using keywords of “lumbar disc herniation, spiral CT, three dimensional reconstruction” in Chinese and English to retrieve relevant articles published 1998-01 to 2010-12. Repetitive articles or Meta analysis were excluded, and finally 36 articles were included.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Currently, spiral CT scanning and multi-mode three-dimensional reconstruction have been used in diagnosis and treatment of lumbar disc herniation, which achieves satisfactory results. Spiral CT combined with multi-mode three-dimensional reconstruction multi-mode three-dimensional reconstruction can accurately show direct signs and indirect signs, improve the diagnostic rate of disc herniation and differentiate from low back pain caused by other diseases as well as plays a role in localization, guidance and review. It is prompted that the rational use of spiral CT and multi-mode three-dimensional reconstruction is a developing direction in the diagnosis and treatment of lumbar disc herniation.
