Abstract
We compared MRI and functional roentgenography for the evaluation of disc degeneration. There was a correlation between disc degeneration and age. There was also a correlation between disc degeneration and disc height, which decreased, as disc degeneration progressed. Segmental movement decreased, as disc degeneration severely progressed.
