Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzlmn / F / 24 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyz Chauhan.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Cervical Spine.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O headaches since 15 days.
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 slight loss of water content of the C3-C4, C4-C5 and C5-C6 intervertebral discs.
A postero-central protruded disc with peridiscal osteophytes is noted at the C3-C4 level.
Posterior disc bulges are noted at the C5-C6 and C6-C7 levels.
The cervical vertebral bodies and the remaining intervertebral discs 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.
Loss of normal flow void signal (hyperintense signal) in the left internal jugular vein may suggest slow flow.
Screening, T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted midline sagittal images of the dorsal spine and a T1 Weighted midline sagittal image of the lumbar spine do not reveal any significant feature of note.
IMPRESSION :
A postero-central protruded disc with peridiscal osteophytes at the C3-C4 level.
