Были проанализированы 203 магнитно-резонансные томограммы , полученные  в ходе обследования добровольцев от 18 до 84 лет по стандартным методикам на магнитно-резонансных томографах с напряженностью  магнитного поля 1–1.5 Тл. Измеряли высоту межпозвонковых дисков на уровнях  С7–С3. Полученные данные были сгруппированы в таблицы с проведением статистического анализа в Microsoft Excel 2007.</p></sec><sec><title>Результаты</title><p>Результаты. По выраженности изменений шейного отдела позвоночника и полу были сформированы три группы: 1- я – без значимых  изменений на уровне шейного отдела позвоночника; 2- я – с умеренно выраженными изменениями; 3- я – со значительно выраженными изменениями структур шейного отдела позвоночника. Наибольшие  изменения вертикального  размера  межпозвонковых дисков наблюдаются у мужчин . Средняя  высота межпозвонковых дисков на уровне от С6/7 до С4/5 снижается  у мужчин  от 1-й к 3-й группе, у женщин , напротив, высота диска С4/5 снижается от 3-й группы.

Представленные  результаты исследования свидетельствуют  о снижении  вертикального размера межпозвоночных дисков вследствие прогрессирования дегенеративно -дистрофических изменений. Была отмечена обратная динамика для межпозвоночных дисков С2/3 и С4/5 среди женщин – снижение высоты от 3-й к 1- й группе. Полученные  данные дополняют сведения о динамике  изменений морфометрических показателей  на фоне дегенеративно-дистрофических  изменений и с учетом пола пациентов , что  позволяет  разрабатывать  средства программного анализа диагностической информации, повышая качество оказания медицинской помощи.</p></sec></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><sec><title>Introduction</title><p>Introduction. Thanks to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), a detailed study of the structure of the cervical  intervertebral discs is possible.</p></sec><sec><title>Aim</title><p>Aim. To identify the morphometric features of the cervical intervertebral discs during the development of degenerative  and dystrophic changes.</p></sec><sec><title>Materials and methods</title><p>Materials and methods. A total of 203 MR images were analyzed, obtained during the examination of  volunteers from 18 to 84 years using conventional methods on 1–1.5 T MR scanners. The height of the intervertebral discs  was measured at C7–C3 segments. The obtained data were grouped into tables and statistical analysis was carried out using  Microsoft Excel 2007.</p></sec><sec><title>Results</title><p>Results. Three groups were formed according to the severity of changes in the cervical spine and gender: 1st – with-out substantial changes in the cervical spine; 2nd – moderate changes; 3rd – pronounces changes in the cervical spine. The  greatest changes in the vertical dimension of intervertebral discs are observed in men. The mean intervertebral disc height  at the level from C6/7 to C4/5 decreases in men from the 1st to the 3rd group; in women, on the contrary, the height of the  C4/5 disc decreases from the 3rd group. The height of the C2/3 intervertebral disc was the largest in the 3rd group.</p></sec><sec><title>Conclusion</title><p>Conclusion. The presented results indicate a decrease in the intervertebral disc height due to the progression of  degenerative and dystrophic changes. The opposite dynamics were noted for C2/3 and C4/5 intervertebral discs among  women – a decrease in the height from the 3rd to the 1st group. The data obtained complete the information on the dynamics of changes in morphometric parameters taking into account the degenerative and dystrophic state of the studied structures and the gender of patients, which makes it possible to develop tools for computational analysis of diagnostic data,  improving the quality of medical care.</p></sec></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>МРТ</kwd><kwd>шейный  отдел  позвоночника</kwd><kwd>морфометрия</kwd><kwd>межпозвоночные диски</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>MRI</kwd><kwd>cervical spine</kwd><kwd>morphometry</kwd><kwd>intervertebral discs</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Демьянова Л.М., Гуркина О.В.
