The Straight Leg Raise (SLR) test is commonly used to identify disc pathology or nerve root irritation, as it mechanically stresses lumbosacral nerve roots. It also has specific importance in detecting disc herniation and neural compression.[1] [2][3]It is also classified as a neurodynamic evaluation test as it can detect excessive nerve root tension[4] or compression[5]. This test is attributed to Dr. Charles Laseague, and referred to as Laseagues test. However, it is believed that Dr. Lazar Lazarevic was the first to establish this test[6].
