| Research Abstract |
The aim of this study is to identify the risk factors associated with the prognosis of SIF. The band length in patients with progression of collapse(mean : 20. 5 mm) was significantly larger than in patients without a progression of collapse(mean : 13. 2 mm). The band length ratio in patients with progression of collapse(mean : 57. 7%) was also significantly higher than in patients without a progression of collapse(mean : 38. 2%). The cutoff points of band length and band length ratio were 20. 2 mm and 57. 9% respectively. These results indicate that the band length and the band length ratio might be predictive for the progression of collapse in SIF.
