Can't seem to find an answer in the literature:
Is there a "physiologic" or normal amount of fluid in the lumbar facet joints seen on MRI? If so, how does one distinguish that from a "pathologic" amount of fluid warranting the label of "facet joint effusion" possibly indicating altered biomechanics?
