FEW IMAGES SHOW PATIENT MOTION.

OBSERVATION :

The L3-L4 disc shows loss of water content.

A transepiphyseal herniation is seen in the antero-inferior aspect of the L5 vertebra.

The lumbar vertebral bodies and the remaining intervertebral discs reveal normal signal intensity. The facet joints and the visualized pre and paravertebral soft tissues are unremarkable.
