 Straightening of the cervical spine is likely positional. There are no fractures or subluxations. The marrow signal is benign. The cervical and upper thoracic cord are normal in signal. The cervicomedullary junction is normal. The cerebellar tonsils are in normal position. The visualized paraspinal contents are unremarkable.The central canal appears congenitally slender from C3/4 through C6/7.C2/3: UnremarkableC3/4: Apart from the congenitally slender canal, unremarkable.C4/5: There is a left paracentral disc extrusion deforming the left hemicord without intrinsic T2 abnormality causing significant proximal neural foraminal obstruction with nerve root compression.C5/6: Apart from the congenitally slender canal, unremarkable.C6/7: Mild disc bulge causing slight anterior cord flattening without intrinsic cord signal abnormality. Apart from the congenitally slender canal, there are no significant stenoses.C7/T1: Unremarkable
1.The central canal appears congenitally slender from C3/4 through C6/7.2.C4/5: There is a left paracentral disc extrusion deforming the left hemicord without intrinsic T2 abnormality causing significant proximal neural foraminal obstruction with nerve root compression.
