Influence of self-reported vascular health and physical activity level on intravoxel incoherent motion imaging response to exercise in chronic low back pain
In individuals with chronic low back pain (CLBP), degenerative changes in paraspinal muscles, such as fatty infiltration and reduced vascularization, may impair muscles’ physiological response to exercise, limiting recovery potential. Intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) imaging enables assessment of muscle microvas...
