The visualized dorsal intervertebral discs show slight loss of water content.
The visualized dorsal vertebral bodies reveal normal signal intensity. The facet joints and the visualized pre and paravertebral soft tissues are unremarkable.
The visualized dorsal spinal cord reveals normal signal intensity.
The conus medullaris terminates at the D12-L1 level.
The cervical and lumbar spines were screened with 4 mm and 5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images, respectively. Posteriorly bulging discs are noted at the L3-L4 and L4-L5 levels.
