Bone and joint diseases, especially herniated discs, account for 45-60% of inpatient treatment in neurology departments. The disease is common in people aged 20-50 and tends to increase in young people. Percutaneous treatment of herniated discs under fluoroscopy is an effective method commonly used today.

Herniated disc is a disease caused by the nucleus pulposus escaping from the fibrous disc, then compressing other organs and causing pain to the patient, so X-rays cannot detect the disease in its early stages. When the nucleus pulposus has spread out, compressing the nerve roots, encroaching on the spinal cord, and deforming the vertebrae, X-rays can help doctors diagnose the disease.

If disc herniation is not diagnosed and treated early, the disease can cause many dangerous complications, directly affecting the patient's ability to move.

Herniated disc is a condition in which the disc, due to degeneration or trauma, is pushed out of its position, causing compression of the spinal nerves. To diagnose a herniated disc, information from imaging methods such as X-ray, CT-scan or MRI is needed. This not only helps increase the ability to diagnose but also provides information for the treatment process.

Herniated disc is a fairly common disease, although not life-threatening, it causes significant impacts on the patient's quality of life. Although X-rays in cases of herniated discs cannot provide a definitive diagnosis, there are some signs on the X-ray that suggest a herniated disc.
