Abstract

Authors and collaborators have presented several reports using computerized technique with Synapse Vincent. The case is 78-year-old male with low back pain (LBP) and lumbar disc herniation of L4/L5. By the reconstruction of CT and MRI images, detail relationship between vertebrae and lumbar nerve can be observed. The moderate stenosis of lumbar nerve was found in sagittal and coronal views of medical image fusion. Using the reconstruction technique, transverse image of intravertebral disc at L4/L5 showed moderate lumbar spinal canal stenosis. Thus, diagnostic fusion method for reconstruction of CT/MRI images will be beneficial and useful for future clinical practice.
