Neck pain with radiculopathy Craniovertebral junction appears within normal limits. The cervical vertebral bodies are appropriate in height. Alignment is maintained. Bone marrow signal is within normal limits. The cervical spinal cord has normal signal characteristics and overall morphology.Mild degenerative changes are seen in the cervical spine as described below:C2-3: No significant compromise to the spinal canal or neural foramina.C3-4: Tiny central protrusion. No significant compromise to the spinal canal or neural foramina.C4-5: Small disc osteophyte complex. No significant compromise to the spinal canal or neural foramina.C5-6: Small disc osteophyte complex including disc bulge eccentric to the left with partial effacement of the ventral thecal sac. There is minimal narrowing of the spinal canal. Right neural foramen is patent. There is mild to moderate narrowing of the left neural foramen related to uncovertebral hypertrophy and disc material where there may be impingement of the left C6 nerve root.C6-7: No significant compromise to the spinal canal or right neural foramen. Minimal left neural foraminal narrowing.C7-T1: No significant compromise to the spinal canal or neural foramina.The vertebral artery flow voids appear to be intact. Paraspinous soft tissue structures appear within normal limits.
Mild degenerative changes in the cervical spine, relatively worse at the C5-C6 level. There is mild to moderate stenosis involving the left C5-C6 neural foramen where there may be impingement of the left C6 nerve root. Additional details as above.
