 The cervical cord is normal in signal and morphology without findings to suggest demyelinating plaques or cord edema. The cervical spine is in normal alignment, with a normal cervical lordosis. The vertebral body and disc space heights are preserved. The bone marrow signal is normal. There are mild degenerative changes with ligamentous flavum thickening and a disc osteophyte complex at C6-7 which results in minimal spinal canal stenosis and mild left neural foraminal narrowing. A posterior disc osteophyte complex at C5-6 results in minimal spinal canal stenosis at this level. Otherwise, the spinal canal and neural foramina are patent; however, evaluation of the neural foramina is suboptimal due to motion degradation. Paraspinous soft tissues are unremarkable.
No abnormal signal within the cervical cord to suggest demyelinating disease.
