Abstract: The comparative analysis of diagnostic accuracy of computerized tomography (CT) multiplanar 3D reconstruction (MPR) technology and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanning for lumbar disc herniation (LDH) in this study.120 patients with LDH were selected as the subjects of this study. According to the random number table method, 120 patients were divided into group CT and group MRI, 60 cases in each group, group CT was given CT-MPR scan, MRI group was given MRI scan, and the operation pathology was compared, the diagnosis of LDH was compared in the two groups. The results showed that the detection rates of the location, degree, Schmod nodule of disc herniation and nerve root compression, dural sac compression, and vacuum phenomenon in group CT and group MRI were basically the same (P>0.05). The diagnostic accuracy to LDH of CT and MRI groups were 96.67% and 100% respectively (P>0.05). This study confirms that, CT-MPR and MRI can effectively evaluate the degree, location and condition of LDH disc herniation, and it has a good diagnostic accuracy.
