Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Disc herniation is a common cause of low back pain and leg pain. Electromyography is the only test that can objectively examine nerve damage caused by a lumbar disc herniation. This study aimed to compare the MRI findings of disc herniation and the aspects of electromyography.
