Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzina Vilmn / F / 55 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzrani.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Cervical Spine.
CLINICAL PROFILE:
C/O neck pain radiating to the RUE with numbness since 00.00.00 with dislocation of the right shoulder.
H/O vehicular accident prior to this.
EMG s/o C7-8-T1 lesion at the proximal level at the root or brachial plexus level.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I of the cervical spine and brachial plexus was performed using the following parameters :
5 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted sagittal images.
5 mm thick T1 Weighted and Fast Scan (T2 *) axial images.
3 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted coronal images.
OBSERVATION :
There is loss of water content of the cervical intervertebral discs.
Small posterior peridiscal osteophytes are noted at the C4-C5 and C5-C6 levels.
The cervical vertebral bodies show normal signal intensity. The joints of Luschka and the visualized pre and paravertebral soft tissues are unremarkable.
The cervical spinal cord shows normal signal intensity.
The atlanto-axial region and the cervico-medullary junction are unremarkable.
- 2 - scan-00002
The study of the brachial plexus reveals no obvious signal change along the course of the brachial plexus on the either side. No obvious nerve root avulsions or pseudomeningoceles are identified.
IMPRESSION :
No significant abnormality is detected on this study.
