Clinical Characteristics and a New Classification System of Mono‐Segmental Thoracic and Lumbar Nonfusion in Patients With Ankylosing Spondylitis
This study systematically described the clinical characteristics of AS-MTLNs and recognized that the CT HU of the L1 vertebra was correlated with the occurrence of AS-MTLN. The newly proposed classification system includes all types of AS-MTLNs, with value for clinical applications and popularization.
