Small posterior disc bulges are noted at the C4-C5 and C5-C6 levels.

The cervical vertebral bodies show normal signal intensity. 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.
