Reason: L arm pain, r/l R structuiral lesion History: L arm pain MRI brain:The CSF spaces are appropriate for the patient's stated age with no midline shift. No abnormal mass lesions are appreciated intracranially. No intracranial hemorrhage is identified. No edema is identified within the brain parenchyma.Normal vascular flow voids are present in the distal carotid and vertebral arteries, the basilar artery and the proximal anterior, middle and posterior cerebral arteries as well as the internal cerebral veins and superior sagittal sinus.The visualized portions of the paranasal sinuses are clear. The visualized portions of the mastoid air cells are clear. The visualized portions of the orbits are intact.MRI cervical spine:The cervical vertebral bodies are appropriate in overall alignment and height. The cervical spinal cord has normal signal characteristics and overall morphology. At C2-3 there is no significant compromise to the spinal canal or neural foramina.At C3-4 there is no significant compromise to the spinal canal or neural foramina.At C4-5 there is no significant compromise to the spinal canal or neural foramina. There is a very small central disk protrusion at this level.At C5-6 there is no significant compromise to the spinal canal or neural foramina. There is a minor disk bulge associated with tiny uncovertebral osteophytes present at this levelAt C6-7 there is no significant compromise to the spinal canal or neural foramina.At C7-T1 there is no significant compromise to the spinal canal or neural foramina.The vertebral artery flow voids appear to be intact.
1.No abnormal intracranial mass lesion is identified which can account for the patient's left arm pain.2.There are minor degenerative changes present in cervical spine without significant compromise to the spinal canal or exiting nerve roots.
