Abstract

The article presents the results of magnetic resonance studies of the lumbar spine in 60 patients using low-field magnetic resonance tomographs. On the base of these data bone marrow conversion variants were systematized and identified, one of them – vascular – was proposed by the authors for the first time. The obtained data are consistent with the results of the study of the bone marrow conversion in the spine using high-field tomographs and thus will have a practical use in the analysis of magnetic resonance imaging of normal and altered bone marrow.
