Assessment

Primary outcomes

The cross-sectional area(CSA) of cervical radiculopathy subject (CR group) and non cervical radiculopathy subjects (non-CR group) at he same cevical nerve level were compared.

Key secondary outcomes

To examine the relationship between Neck Disability Index (NDI) and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and the enlargement of the CSAs.

Key inclusion criteria

Patients were included who suffer from unilateral radicular pain to an arm, sensory disturbance, and/or motor weakness at an upper limb with suspicious cervical radiculopathy. We divide 2 groups by using cervical MRI (c-MRI) as a reference standard. First, in cevical radiculopathy group c-MRI indicated the cerivcial nerve is compressed by disc herniation or osteophyte. Second, in non cervical radicuropathy the finding was negative on c-MRI.

Key exclusion criteria

Patients with neck pain only, trauma case, severe diabetes, severe renal disfunction, collagen disease, or neuromuscular disease.
