Correlation between Psoas Muscle Index and Degeneration of Spinal Back Muscle in Patients with Back Pain
Sarcopenia is characterized by a decline in systemic muscle mass and physical performance. Disc degeneration also causes back muscle atrophy. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the influence of systemic muscle mass decline on back muscle atrophy and fatty infiltration compared to disc degeneration. We...
