Back pain with radiation to the left leg. The study is limited by patient motion. There is minimal posterior subluxation of L1 relative to L2. The vertebral bodies are preserved in height. Fat-containing lesions in L1, L2, and S2 may represent hemangiomas. There is mild T2 signal and height loss involving the L1-L2 through L4-L5 intervertebral discs, associated with mild degenerative marrow signal subjacent to the respective endplates. There are slight disc bulges at L1-2 through L3-4, but spinal canal is patent and there is no evidence of nerve root compression in the neural foramina. The tip of the conus medullaris is located at the lower L1 level and displays normal signal. There is no evidence of tumors. The paravertebral soft tissues are unremarkable.
Mild multilevel degenerative lumbar spondylosis without evidence of nerve root compression.
