Lack of coordination, hyperreflexia. 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. There is minor disc bulge.At C3-4 there is loss of disc height and disc desiccation. There is mild disc bulge. There is posterior ligament hypertrophy. There is partial effacement of the spinal fluid anterior and posterior to the spinal cord. There is bilateral uncovertebral joint osteophytes with narrowing of the neural foramina bilaterally. There is encroachment of the exiting nerve roots within the neural foramina bilaterally.At C4-5 there is loss of disc height, disk dessication and diffuse disc bulge and mild posterior ligamental hypertrophy associated with bilateral uncovertebral osteophytes and encroachment of the exiting nerve roots within the neural foramina bilaterally.. There is partial effacement of the spinal fluid anterior and posterior to the spinal cord. At C5-6 there is loss of disc height, disk dessication and diffuse disc bulge and mild posterior ligamental hypertrophy associated with bilateral uncovertebral osteophytes and encroachment of the exiting nerve roots within the neural foramina bilaterally.. There is partial effacement of the spinal fluid anterior and posterior to the spinal cord. At C6-7 there is disc bulge and desiccation. There is posterior ligament hypertrophy. There is partial effacement of the anterior and posterior fluid space. Uncovertebral osteophytes are present bilaterally with a mild degree of encroachment of the exiting nerve roots.The left vertebral artery flow-void is not seen. There is high T2 signal present within the left vertebral artery throughout its visualized course.Note is made that the postcontrast images are degraded by the patient motion.
1. There are multilevel degenerative changes present in the cervical spine with mild degrees of spinal stenosis at C3-4 and C5-6 and multilevel neural foramen encroachment of exiting nerve roots due to uncovertebral osteophytes and disc disease.2. Findings are suspicious for occlusion of the left vertebral artery.
