Degenerative Changes of the Lumbar SpineVisualised by Magnetic Resonance
Degenerativní změny bedernípáteře v obraze magnetickérezonance
Bolesti v bederní páteři patří mezi nejčastější zdravotní problémy naší civilizace. Pro zdravot-nictví jsou velkou ekonomickou zátěží vzhledem k nákladům přímo spojeným s jejich léčbou,inaptibilitou a invaliditou nemocných. Z hlediska radiologie představují velký tlak na neurora-diologické zobrazovací metody. Každá bolest v zádech však není indikována k vyšetření zobra-zovacími metodami. Ošetřující lékař musí mít jasnou představu, jakou informaci žádá odvyšetření, které indikuje. Magnetická rezonance se stává metodou volby u degenerativníchonemocnění páteře, u pooperačních komplikací léčby výhřezu disku, „failed back surgerysyndrom“ je metodou dominantní.
Klíčová slova:
magnetická rezonance - degenerativní změny - bederní páteř - výhřez disku -pooperační komplikace.

Overview
Lumbar pain is a common medical problem of our civilisation. It means a great economic burdenbecause of both direct therapeutic costs and patient´s inaptibility and invalidity. Withinradiology, neuroimaging stands under great pressure. Every pain in the back does not neces-sarily need neuroimaging. Every physician should be aware of the information he or she mayobtain from the particular neuroradiological investigation. Magnetic resonance imaging is amethod of choice for demonstration of degenerative disease of the spine and a dominant methodin failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS).
Key words:
magnetic resonance imaging - degenerative disease - lumbar spine - intervertebraldisc herniation - postoperative changes - failed back surgery syndrome.
