Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzakantan.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Lumbo-sacral Spine.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O backache radiating to the RLE with paresthesias since 1 year.

EXAMINATION :

M.R.I of the lumbo-sacral spine was performed using the following parameters :

5 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted sagittal images.

5 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted axial images.

OBSERVATION :

There are small postero-central protruded discs at the L4-L5 and L5-S1 levels.

Slight anterior wedging of the D10 and D11 vertebrae is noted without change in signal intensity.

Small postero-central protruded discs are noted at the D10-D11 and D11-D12 levels.

The lumbar vertebral bodies show signal changes consistent with hematopoietic marrow.

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

The conus medullaris terminates at the L1 level and the thecal sac terminates at the S2 level.
Scan-00001

The antero-posterior dimensions of the lumbar canal at the level of the intervertebral discs are as follows :

19.0 mm at L1-L2
19.0 mm at L2-L3
18.0 mm at L3-L4
16.0 mm at L4-L5
15.0 mm at L5-S1.

Mild splenomegaly is noted.

IMPRESSION :

1. Small postero-central protruded discs at the L4-L5 and L5-S1 levels.

2. Slight anterior wedging of the D10 and D11 vertebrae without change in signal intensity may be the sequelae of previous trauma.

3. Small postero-central protruded discs at the D10-D11 and D11-D12 levels.
