Popis: Spinal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) volume is the primary determinant for the spread of spinal anesthesia. However, it cannot generally be obtained during spinal anesthesia, and patient physical characteristics are always adopted to obtain a suitable spinal spread. In this study, we sought to explore the relationship between individual physical characteristics and thoracosacral CSF volume to provide a theoretical basis for more accurate spinal anesthesia. In total 35 healthy volunteers were enrolled in this study. Three-dimensional magnetic resonance imaging was used to reconstruct and measure the spinal CSF volume. Physical characteristics and spinal CSF volume were recorded. Bivariate and multiple linear regression analyses were used to analyze the correlation between the individual physical characteristics and thoracosacral CSF volume. Total of 31 participants were included in the final analysis. Bivariate linear correlation analysis showed that the volume of thoracosacral CSF was correlated with both individual dorso-sacral distance and height (both p 0.01), but not with abdominal girth (p 0.05). Multiple linear regression analyses revealed that the adjusted R
