Abstract:
This study aimed to evaluate the lumber canal diameter using computed
tomography in Khartoum state in period from march to October 2018. The data
were collected from Yastabshiroon medical center using CT machine model GE
optima 16 slice. The scan parameter 5mm slice ,120 kv, 200 mA.
The results presented in statistical parameters as mean, median, stander
deviation , minimum and maximum. Were the mean ± standard deviation
for age was 44.71±15.38, for Mid-sagittal of body, Transverse of body,
Mid-sagittal of canal and Transverse of canal was 29.89 ± 3.84, 40.05 ±
3.89, 15.21 ± 2.31 and 22.56 ± 2.84 respectively. using linear regression
equation showed that the correlate with age and Mid-sagittal of body
showed the mid-sagittal of body increase with the age by rate 0.0931 for
each year. correlate between age and transverse of body showed the
transverse of body increase with the age by rate 0.1137 for each year.
correlate between age and mid-sagittal of canal showed the mid-sagittal of
body decrease with the age by rate 0.023 for each year. correlate between
age and transverse of canal showed the transverse of canal increase with
the age by rate 0.0242 for each year.
