degenerative Veränderung der Bandscheiben


Explanation:
hier sind wohl 'osteophytic bars' gemeint

As disk degeneration occurs, mechanical stresses result in osteophytic bars, which form along the ventral aspect of the spinal canal.

Hier eine sehr hilfreiche Website mit Laienbeschreibung

http://www.sophie.org.uk/backpain.htm

There were <too big> degenerative changes noted in the cervical spine from the 3rd to the 7th cervical vertebrae and posterior disc/osteophytic bars were noted in this region <your neck vertebrae are worn out and your body is growing new bone in the wrong places...>.


Leider ist für mich nicht genau erkenntlich welche Form diese bars genau haben, daher die etwas allgemeine Beschreibung 'degenerative Veränderung'

http://de.inforapid.org/index.php5?search=Spondylosis deform...
Osteophyten [...] sind degenerative, strukturelle Veränderungen in Form von knöchernen Ausläufern....
