AROCHE LAFARGUE, Yoandra; PONS PORRATA, Laura María; DE LA CRUZ DE ONA, Andria  y  GONZALEZ FERRO, Idalia. Pathogenia, clinical pattern, and imagenologic diagnosis through magnetic resonance of the disc herniation. MEDISAN [online]. 2015, vol.19, n.3, pp. 391-402. ISSN 1029-3019.

Disc herniations constitute an important health problem causing absenteeism in active people, so that the cost generated by this disorder is reason of concern at world scale. The literature review on their pathogenia, clinical pattern and diagnostic imaging is of vital importance for its prevention, diagnosis and opportune treatment. In the diagnosis through images, the magnetic resonance has had a higher impact in the analysis of the spine disorders, because it facilitates to investigate the characteristics of the intervertebral disc. It has diagnostic advantage regarding the computerized axial tomography and myelography, because it uses no ionizing radiations, also, it is considered more sensitive and specific to demonstrate anomalies, lesions, as well as spine diseases which cannot be visualized or may be hidden with the other methods

Palabras clave : disc herniations; pathogenia; clinical pattern; diagnostic imaging; magnetic resonance.
