    Background: The DRX-900 is a treatment for lumbar disc herniation that not being invasive is taking an increasingly prominent role in addressing. Magnetic resonance imaging study is currently mostly used for diagnosis of herniated discs. Little is known of the changes in the use of lumbar posterior decompression MRI. Objective: Determine the existence of changes in MRI, after the use of the DRX9000 decompression in patients with lumbar disc herniation Hospital José Carrasco Arteaga. January 2014 - December 2014. Methodological Design: The study is retrospective comparative quantitative and descriptive, was sampled 100 reports of MRI. The variables analyzed were type of hernia, degenerative changes of the disc hernia location, distance from the disk, disk displacement, amplitude changes neuroforamen and subsequent resonance. Data were obtained from medical records of patients, were transferred to a form, after which the entry into the program SPSS version 22 for analysis. Results: The focal hernia is most commonly found in most of the cases there were subsequent changes in the use of magnetic resonance, changes are reflected in the amplitude of neuroforamen.
