| Abstract | Objectives To propose a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) classification of brucellosis spondylitis (BS) to determine a standard treatment method and a standard of post-treatment MRI follow-up. Methods This is a multicenter retrospective cohort study. All patients diagnosed with BS at six hospitals for 12 years, were included in the study. Data were collected retrospectively from the medical records of the patients. The classification of the cases was based on MRI. We analyzed MRI features of BS was categorized them into three types. Results Six hundred fifteen patients were included in the study, 78.9% of whom were males. The mean age was 53.05 ± 11.06 years. Involvement of single vertebrae occurred in 6.2% of patients, while 72.7% involved two vertebrae and 21.1% involvement of more than two vertebrae. The most common of the lumbar spine was 64.6%. The main findings of MRI were affected vertebral endplate 2/3 above (60.7%), intervertebral space narrow (77.9%), intervertebral disc involvement (83.6%), paravertebral abscess (50.9%), disc abscess (49.6%), epidural abscess (43.3%), vertebra height change (22.1%), psoas abscess (22.0%), and abnormal vertebral accessory (10.2%). MR imaging of BS was categorized into three types. Type I: 57 (9.3%) patients; Type II: 526 (85.5%) patients, including IIa (26.5%), IIb (36.9%), and IIc (22.1%); Type IV: vertebral appendage type, 63 (10.2%) cases; Type III: 32 (5.2%) patients. Conclusions MRI features of multicenter data can provide theoretical support for diagnosing BS. MRI classification of BS can afford better help for clinical treatment and follow-up after clinical treatment. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
