Abstract
A method for the diagnosis of disc herniation and nerve root compression in the lower lumbar and upper sacral spine is presented. Computed tomography of the spine was carried out after injection of a positive contrast medium into the epidural space. Preliminary results indicate a high diagnostic accuracy.
