Abstract

Low backache or lumbosacral pain is considered the leading cause of disability globally (1). This clinical symptom should be treated appropriately to improve the quality of lifestyle and reduce the morbidity of these patients. Magnetic resonance imaging offers great help in diagnosing the cause and severity of the low backache. Oswestry disability index score (ODI) is used to know about a patient functional disability based on a questionnaire. The present study is a cross-sectional study of 60 middle-aged patients where there is a correlation between the obtained radiological ndings from MRI with the modied Oswestry disability index score.
