The Lasegue test: Defining its specificity and sensitivity based on geometry

Abstract: The Lasegue test -also known as the straight leg raise test-, used for diagnostic purposes in cases of lumbar disc herniation can be explained by geometrical rules.This study aimed to describe the relationship between the apical and basal size of the herniated disc and the Lasegue test, and to describe the specificity and sensitivity of the herniated disc as a function of its height, location, and size. The study evaluated cases diagnosed with lumbar disc herniation with available MRI scans and Lasegue test re… Show more
