The neck/spine area is completely NEW for me. If it was the knee I could tell you pretty much anything you want to know. Any help on how decoding this MRI would be greatly appreciated and how serious this is "There is complete
effacement of the ventral thecal sac, especially on the right where
there is mild to moderate indentation in the ventral aspect of the
spinal cord." Thank you in advance!
C2-3: Normal.
C3-4: Minimal disc bulging with no significant stenosis.
C4-5: Minimal disc bulging with no significant stenosis.
C5-6: There is a moderate reduction height of the disc and there is
disc degeneration. There is moderate circumferential disc bulging
with right parasagittal asymmetric prominence. There is uncovertebral
hypertrophy bilaterally, worse on the right. There is complete
effacement of the ventral thecal sac, especially on the right where
there is mild to moderate indentation in the ventral aspect of the
spinal cord. No obvious cord edema. Mild bilateral neural foraminal
narrowing.
C6-7: Mild disc desiccation. Mild broad-based right parasagittal
disc protrusion, effacing the ventral thecal sac. No definite cord
compression. No significant neural foraminal narrowing.
C7-T1: Negative.
IMPRESSION:
C5-6 and C6-7 disc bulging as outlined above, including flattening of
the ventral aspect of the spinal cord at C5-6, especially on the
right. Clinical correlation is recommended.
