Brief Summary
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between non-specific low back pain (NSLBP) and lumbar lordosis angle (LLA) and lumbar muscle thickness (LMT) by evaluating magnetic resonance images (MRI) in individuals with LBP.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (3)
Disability caused by low back pain assessed by Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire
Low back pain disability is assessed with Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire. Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) score as a percentage is obtained from the questionnaire result.
6 months
Lumbar lordosis angle
* Measured with the COBB angle method as LLA degree. * It is determined by looking at the angle between the vertebrae forming the lumbar lordosis curvature (L1-L5). * All radiological measurements are performed on the RAdiant DICOM viewer program.
6 months
Muscles thickness measurements
* Measured on the horizontal plane corresponding to the L3-L4 level in the sagittal plane. * Bilaterally, the thickest parts of the muscles are measured anterior-posterior and transverse and recorded in millimetres (mm). * All radiological measurements are performed on the RAdiant DICOM viewer program. * Muscles measured are listed below: * m. psoas major * m. multifidus * m. erector spinae muscles * m. quadratus lumborum
