Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzndhi / Dr. Abc Xyzpta.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Cervical Spine.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O neck pain radiating to the LUE since 4 months.

EXAMINATION :

M.R.I of the cervical spine was performed using the following parameters :

4 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted sagittal images.

5 mm thick T1 Weighted and Fast Scan (T2 *) axial images.

OBSERVATION :

There is loss of normal cervical lordosis and loss of water content of the cervical intervertebral discs.

There is a postero-central and left postero-lateral disc herniation with peridiscal osteophytes at the C6-C7 level with left neural foraminal narrowing.

A small postero-central disc herniation with peridiscal osteophytes is noted at the C4-C5 level, indenting the cervical spinal cord anteriorly.

Small postero-central disc herniation is noted at the C5-C6 level.

Small postero-central protruded disc is seen at the C3-C4 level.

The cervical vertebral bodies show normal signal intensity. The joints of Luschka and the visualized pre and paravertebral soft tissues are unremarkable.
R>

The cervical spinal cord reveals normal signal intensity.

The atlanto-axial region and the cervico-medullary junction are unremarkable.

IMPRESSION :

1. A postero-central and left postero-lateral disc herniation with peridiscal osteophytes at the C6-C7 level with left neural foraminal narrowing.

2. A small postero-central disc herniation with peridiscal osteophytes at the C4-C5 level, indenting the cervical spinal cord anteriorly.

3. Small postero-central disc herniation at the C5-C6 level.
