Referred by : Dr. Abc XyzV. Shah.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Cervical Spine.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O neckpain with pain radiating to the left shoulder.

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.

SOME IMAGES SHOW PATIENT MOTION.

OBSERVATION :

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

There is a postero-central and right postero-lateral disc herniation with peridiscal osteophytes at the C5-C6 level with slight inferior migration of the disc fragment to the right of the midline indenting the traversing right C6 nerve root.

Minimal posterior disc bulges are noted at the C3-C4 and C4-C5 levels.

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

The cervical spinal cord reveals normal signal intensity.

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