A 21-year-old female patient presented clinically with chronic low back pain with no detected neurological or orthopedic pathology. A T2WI with no measures. B DTI measures of the multifidus muscle {FA = 0.4 and MD = 1.24 × 10−3 mm2/s}. C DTI measures of the erector spinae muscle {FA = 0.47 and MD = 1.03 × 10−3 mm2/s}. D DTI measures of the psoas muscle {FA = 0.55 and MD = 0.93 × 10−3 mm2/s}…generally there is increase in the FA value and decrease in MD value of the measured muscles
