Background Occupationally related limitations of earning capacity can be recognized under social legislation and may be subject to compensation (“reduction in earning capacity”). For this purpose, legislators have defined a list of occupational diseases (“BK list”). Recognition of an occupational disease requires a legal assessment procedure based on a medical appraisal. The aim of the assessment is to prove the “causality” and the “causality giving rise to liability”. Method In addition to clinical findings and workplace analyses, imaging methods (projection radiography, MRI) are primarily used to substantiate liability. These methods enable proof of load-conforming damage patterns for occupational diseases 2108/2110 (damage to intervertebral discs). Results and Conclusion In addition to the legal background, the following review article primarily presents the image criteria for load-conforming damage patterns of the spine. On the basis of the consensus paper on the “Assessment of occupational disc diseases of the lumbar spine”, image criteria are assigned to age-atypical grades of findings, and “typical constellations of findings” are defined for vibration (BK 2108) or lifting (BK 2110) loads. The aim of Part 1 is to explain the image criteria of the comparative images presented as image plates in Part 2 and thus to present a reference catalog of findings. Key statements: Citation Format

Background Job-related limitations of earning capacity are eligible for recognition under social legislation and may be subject to compensation (see Part 1). Method For the recognition of an occupational disease (BK), diagnostic imaging is required as part of the legal determination procedure for occupational diseases 2108/2110 (“occupational disc disease”). The focus is on image criteria on X-ray images and MRI examinations. In a consensus paper under the guidance of the German Social Accident Insurance Institutions from 2005, the characteristic patterns are defined and explained extensively and summarized in typical occupation-related constellations. This article presents representative image examples as a reference system for expert reporting as far as the typical patterns from the consensus paper are concerned. Conclusion In Part 2, comparison images with the typical findings of the vertebral bodies and intervertebral discs according to occupational diseases are systematically presented, explained, and offered as a reference system for expert assessment. The image criteria can be used as “evidence by eye” (Heuck) in the recognition procedure. Key Points: Citation Format
