The Diagnostic and Prognostic Value of Two Quantitative Clinical Tests in Patients With Lumbar Disc Herniation

Summary

This study will investigate whether two clinical tests can be used to diagnose and predict the outcome in patients with lumbar disc herniation undergoing surgery and non-surgery treatment.

The two quantitative clinical tests include: electromyographic measurements using Paraspinal Mapping and pain responses using Quantitative Sensory Pain Testing.
