ABSTRACT

ObjectivesThis study is planned to classify correlation between HIVD of L-spine MRI and Digital Infrared Thermal Image (DITI).MethodsWe measured the temperature of both leg whose 120 men and 116 women patients with lumbar pain in Bucheon Jaseng Korean Medicine Hospital. And We use Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) for classifying the patients who has lumbar interverte-bral disc or not.Results1) There was no statistical relation between difference of both leg's temperature and gender (p＞0.05). 2) There was meaningful statistical relation between difference of both leg's temperature and age (p＜0.05). 3) There was meaningful statistical relation be-tween direction of HIVD of L-spine and direction of temperature reduction. 4) There was meaningful statistical relation between the severity of HIVD of L5/S1 and degree of temper-ature reduction. But there was no statistical relation between the severity of HIVD of L3/4, L4/5 and degree of temperature reduction.ConclusionsWe can use Digital Infrared thermal image (DITI) on low back pain patients for diagnosis. But we should not use DITI alone. DITI has limit in diagnosis. (J Korean Med Rehabil 2017;27(3):107-115)
