LBP definition LBP definition
Low back pain was defined as pain and discomfort Low back pain was defined as pain and discomfort, localized below the costal margin and above the inferior gluteal folds, with or without leg pain ( i i ) (O kh di l ) (sciatica) (Omokhodion et al, 2002),
and as “pain limited to the region between the lower margins of the 12th rib and the glutei folds” with or margins of the 12th rib and the glutei folds with or without leg pain (sciatica) (Manek and Macgregor, 2005)

Sociodemographic factors such as age, gender, education ,and marital status have all been identified as risk factors for developing or prolonging episodes of common LBP.9,13 Similarly,y,
occupational factors such as work satisfaction, autonomy, supervisor empathy, monotonous or repetitive tasks, and prolonged exposure to heavy physical activities includingp g p y p y g lifting, carrying, and manual handling, have also been identified as risk factors for common LBP.2,14‐16 General health factors including tobacco use, body weight, physicalhealth factors including tobacco use, body weight, physical activity levels, and the presence of systemic, physical, or psychological comorbidities have also been implicated in LBP.6,9,17 Socioeconomic factors including income level, LBP.6,9,17 Socioeconomic factors including income level, involvement in worker’s compensation, personal injury, or other litigation, and availability of supplemental disability insurance are also thought to impact the severity or duration insurance are also thought to impact the severity or duration of common LBP.9,16 Genetic factors have also been identified that may increase the risk for development of lumbar degenerative disc disease which may lead to LBP disc disease, which may lead to LBP.

Plain Radiography:Plain Radiography:
Most common spinal imaging test. Low cost and ready availability.p g g y y AP and Lateral views demonstrate alignment, disc and vertebral
body height, and gross assessment of bone density and architecture. Sacroiliitis occurs early in Ankylosing spondylitis and is readily detected by plain films.y y p
Agency for Health Care Policy and Research Guidelines currently do not recommend routine oblique and spot lateral views. Get oblique if you suspect spondylolysis; good for pars interarticularis. Get flexion and extension films if you suspect lumbosacral instability. Get flexion and extension films if you suspect lumbosacral instability. Get angled sacral views if you suspect ankylosing spondylitis.
Caution using lumbar radiography repeatedly, may damage the gonads, particularly in reproductive age females.

Infection (may be the best modality with gadolinium enhancement)
Disc Herniation Spinal stenosis Nerve root impingement

Bone Scans:Bone Scans:
While plain films, CT, and MRI detect bony morphology, bone p , , y p gy,scintigraphy detects biochemical changes in bone.
Most useful in detecting the age of compression fractures. Old fractures will appear “cold” while new fractures will appear
“hot”.hot . Very useful for determining primary bony tumors (usually benign,
i.e. osteoid osteoma, osteoblastoma, aneurysmal bone cyst, and osteochondroma) degree of metastasis and certain infections (infectious spondylitis in particular – gallium67 when compared with (infectious spondylitis in particular gallium67 when compared with MRI had better specificity and sensitivity).
Useful for subtle fractures and infarction. Useful for metabolic bone disease such as Paget Disease.

Recent studies we utilize a test with that degree of inaccuracy? Recent studies have shown a lower degree of specificity but the jury is still out.
