Can the supine extended position with legs straightened and a lumbar pillow complement the psoas-relaxed position for the diagnosis of lumbar spinal stenosis on MRI? A prospective cross-sectional study

EXT increased lumbar lordosis to the normal standing range of approximately 50°, mimicking an upright MRI. A more realistic degree of central stenosis at all levels and of lateral recess stenosis at L4/L5 was shown. Foraminal stenosis did not increase.

Abstract

EXT increased lumbar lordosis to the normal standing range of approximately 50°, mimicking an upright MRI. A more realistic degree of central stenosis at all levels and of lateral recess stenosis at L4/L5 was shown. Foraminal stenosis did not increase.
