Diagnostic imaging in fracture of lumbar vertebral ring apophyses
Acta Radiol.
1992 Jan.
Abstract
The findings at plain radiography, myelography, CT, and MR imaging in 3 cases of fracture of the lumbar vertebral ring apophysis are presented. Familiarity with this entity is important in evaluating low back pain in children and young adults. Conventional radiographs and/or MR imaging may suggest ring apophysis fracture; CT will confirm and classify the diagnosis.
