PURPOSE To use transabdominal ultrasound (US) to investigate the impact of posture and axial loading on the lumbar intervertebral disc (IVD) dimensions in healthy adults.

METHOD For this single-center, prospective cross-sectional study 54 healthy volunteers (mean age 23.76 ± 3, 26 men) underwent transabdominal US. Lumbar IVD dimensions (height, length, width) at the levels L3/4 and L4/5 were assessed in three test conditions: supine, standing, and standing position with additional axial load of 50 % body weight (standing+50%).
