Method And Device For Positioning A Patient For The Diagnosis Of Herniated Lumbar Disc Disease
US Patent:
6000399, Dec 14, 1999
Filed:
Jun 5, 1998
Appl. No.:
9/090697
Inventors:
Daniel Shu Jen Choy - New York NY
International Classification:
A61G 1500
US Classification:
128845
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for positioning a patient for the diagnosis of herniated lumbar disc disease permits the generation of increased intra-disc pressure which may serve to stimulate or accentuate abnormalities which can be diagnosed through MRI imaging. The apparatus consists of a frame in which a patient lies in a supine position. The frame allows the generation of muscular forces which are transmitted to the lumbar spine area. The patient is then positioned within an MRI imaging apparatus and subjected to MRI imaging while the muscular forces are maintained. The frame may preferably include a footboard and shoulder restraints positioned as to require the patient to slightly bend the knees. Extension of the legs generates the required forces.
