      Comments from the Reviewers: 
      This is a well conceived study that is clearly and concisely presented.
       It 'objectivizes' the effects of the variety of modalities we clinicians
      can apply to affect foraminal size.It will be of use and interest to our
      readership. Publication will be recommended.
