目的：串联椎管狭窄症（TSS）是指颈、腰椎合并椎管狭窄的疾病。本研究的目的是确定放射学TSS的患病率及其与发育性椎管狭窄（DCS）的关系。第二个目的是调查在何种程度上与脊髓型颈椎病和症状性LSS.Methods我们招募了1011（336名男性和675名女性）参与这项以人群为基础的研究。在排除了那些有起搏器、颈椎或腰椎手术史、不合格的患者后，分析了931例（平均年龄67.3岁）参与者的全脊柱MRI数据。通过MRI评估颈髓压迫（CCC）和腰椎管狭窄症（LSS）的影像学表现。X线平片测量管体比。DCS诊断为管体比
Purpose Tandem spinal stenosis (TSS) is a condition of combined spinal stenosis in the cervical and lumbar regions. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of radiographic TSS and its association with developmental canal stenosis (DCS). The second purpose was to investigate the extent to which radiographic TSS is associated with cervical myelopathy and symptomatic LSS.Methods We recruited 1011 (336 men and 675 women) participants in this population-based study. After excluding those with a pacemaker, a history of cervical or lumbar surgery, disqualification, the MRI data of whole spine was analysed in 931 (mean, 67.3 years) participants. Cervical cord compression (CCC) and radiographic lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) were evaluated by MRI. The canal-to-body ratio was also measured by plain X-ray. DCS was diagnosed as canal-to-body ratio
