Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzn Ralmn / F / 42 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzngsarkar.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Cervical Spine.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O neckpain and backache with radiation of pain to the RUE and BLE.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I of the cervical spine 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.
OBSERVATION :
There is a postero-central disc herniation with peridiscal osteophytes, more to the right of the midline and indenting the cord at the C6-C7 level and the right C7 nerve root.
A small left paracentral disc herniation with peridiscal osteophytes is seen to indent the cord at the C5-C6 level.
Note is made of a postero-central disc protrusion at the C4-C5 level.
The cervical intervertebral discs show loss of water content.
The cervical vertebral bodies show normal signal intensity. The joints of Luschka and the visualized pre and paravertebral soft tissues are unremarkable.
Scan-00003
The cervical spinal cord reveals normal signal intensity.
The atlanto-axial region and the cervico-medullary junction are unremarkable.
IMPRESSION :
The MRI features are suggestive of :
1. A postero-central disc herniation with peridiscal osteophytes, more to the right of the midline at the C6-C7 level with indentation upon the right C7 nerve root and the spinal cord.
2. A small left paracentral disc herniation with peridiscal osteophytes at the C5-C6 level.
3. A posterior disc protrusion at the C4-C5 level.
