U.S., June 26 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07670039) titled 'Reliability and Reproducibility of Facet Joint Measurements in the Thoracolumbar Spine' on June 16.
Brief Summary: The purpose is to determine how reliably degenerative changes in the facet joints (FJs) and intervertebral discs (IvDs) can be assessed on computed tomography (CT) scans.
At least six raters, including neurosurgeons and CT specialists, will independently evaluate anonymized CT scans covering the T9-L3 levels. The study will assess reproducibility of the Pathria grading scale for FJ degeneration and of quantitative measurements such as FJ space width and FJ angulation.
Study Start Date: July 01
Study Type: OBSERVATION...
