Our proposed method for assessing the functional state of the spine (Priority License No. 3844463/14-9766) consists of measuring the anterior height of any intervertebral disc (hp) at maximum extension and correlating it with the anterior height (he) of the same disc at maximum flexion on lateral radiographs of the spine.
