The vertebral body and disk heights are otherwise well-maintained. No worrisome focal marrow signal abnormality is appreciated. The spinal cord is of normal caliber and signal. There is no pathological enhancement.Very mild mid to lower cervical disc degeneration is noted with trace disc bulges from C4-C5 through C6-C7 and up to mild-moderate central spinal canal stenosis at C5-C6 and minimal right foraminal narrowing at C6-C7. There is no significant spinal canal or foraminal stenosis within the remainder of the cervical spine.
