 Note that the examination is limited by patient motion artifact. Note that the lack of intravenous contrast limits sensitivity for small lesions.Thoracic spine: There is a smooth, physiologic thoracic kyphotic curve. The vertebral body heights and disc spaces are maintained. Marrow signal intensity is benign throughout. The spinal cord has a smooth contour and is without focal atrophy, edema, or myelomalacia. Given the limitation of the lack of intravenous contrast, no masses or lesions are seen.Lumbar spine: Limited examination secondary to patient intolerance and motion with sagittal sequences only. Alignment is anatomic. The marrow signal is benign. No masses or lesions seen given the limitation of the lack of intravenous contrast.
1.Motion degraded examination of the thoracic and lumbar spine with limited sagittal sequences of the lumbar spine obtained. There are no appreciable masses within the spinal canal or neuroforamina, given the caveat of limited sensitivity for small lesions due to the lack of intravenous contrast.2.Please refer to separate report for details of cervical spine, soft tissues of the neck, and brain.
