Objective To explore the diagnostic value of MRI and CT in the diagnosis of patients with lumbar disc herniation. Methods the subjects were 72 patients with lumbar disc herniation treated in our hospital from January 2021 to December 2021. They were randomly and blindly divided into two groups. They were examined by CT (control group) and MRI (observation group). The differences of diagnostic results were statistically analyzed. Results the detection rates of nerve root compression, hard capsule compression, spinal cord deformation and intervertebral disc degeneration in the observation group were higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05); The detection rates of calcification and pneumointervertebral disc in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion MRI and CT can achieve certain diagnostic results, but compared with CT, MRI has a higher accuracy. Clinically, it is necessary to reasonably select the examination method in combination with the specific situation of patients, so as to provide a reliable basis for the follow-up diagnosis and treatment plan.
