Fig. 4. T2-DDV in the cervical intervertebral discs with different degeneration grades.

Fig. 4

Degenerating cervical discs displayed a lower T2-DDV in the NP regions and a higher T2-DDV in the AI-AF regions when compared with healthy discs. T2-DDV data are presented as medians. One-way analysis of variance or Welch’s analysis of variance: *p ≤ 0.05, †p ≤ 0.001. A = anterior, AF = annulus fibrosus, AI = anterior inner, AO = anterior outer, C = central, NP = nucleus pulposus, P = posterior, T2-DDV = the degree of diurnal T2 values variation
