evaluate for cord compression or epidural abscessSigns and Symptoms: back pain, incontinence Five lumbar type vertebral bodies are presumed to be present which are appropriate in overall alignment and height. The conus medullaris on sagittal imaging is grossly intact. A small high signal focus on T1-weighted imaging within the L4 vertebral body is present in most likely represents a small hemangioma.At L5-S1 there is no significant compromise to spinal canal or neural foramina. There is disc desiccation present at this level associated with a disc bulge and partial effacement of the fat at the lateral recesses bilaterally.At L4-5 there is no significant compromise to spinal canal or neural foramina.At L3-4 there is no significant compromise to spinal canal or neural foramina.At L2-3 there is no significant compromise to spinal canal or neural foramina.At L1-2 there is no significant compromise to spinal canal or neural foramina.
No compromise to lumbar spinal canal or neural foramina. There is a disc bulge present at L5-S1 without significant compromise to the spinal canal or exiting nerve roots.
