ABSTRACT

From November 1996 to December 1998 within 90 MRI diagnosed cases of cervical disc herniation found in Hanoi region. 90 male patients with 23-68 years old (on average 45). The result showed that MRI is the best sensible method to determine the cervical disc herniation. The study is performed separately in two levels of the disc herniation bulging disc 44% and typical disc herniation 56%, pick levels of the disc herniation occur at levels C4/C5 and C5/C6. Cervical canal stenosis and spondylosis may be combined with the disc herniation.
