Prevalence of diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) assessed with wholespine computed tomography in 1479 subjects

Computed tomography (CT) analyses have reported that the prevalence of diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) in Japan is 8.7–27.1%. However, these data were obtained using chest-abdominal CT, and no evaluations of sagittal, coronal, and axial images using whole-spine CT have been reported.
