64 years Female (DOB: 1/12/1952) PROVIDER/ATTENDING NAME: SERVICES ANCILLARY SERVICES ANCILLARY The cervical vertebral bodies are appropriate in overall alignment and height. The cervical spinal cord has normal signal characteristics and overall morphology. There is multilevel loss of disc space height and disc desiccation present.At C2-3 there is no significant compromise to the spinal canal or neural foramina.At C3-4 there is no significant compromise to the spinal canal or neural foramina.At C4-5 there is no significant compromise to the spinal canal. There are bilateral uncovertebral osteophytes present at this level associated with disc material and encroachment of the right-sided exiting nerve roots within the neural foramen. There is a small left paramedian disc protrusion present at this level which effaces spinal fluid ventral to the left hemicord.At C5-6 there is no significant compromise to the spinal canal. There are bilateral uncovertebral osteophytes present this level associated with disc material encroachment of the exiting nerve roots within the right neural foramina.At C6-7 there is no significant compromise to the spinal canal . There are bilateral uncovertebral osteophytes present at this level associated with disc material and encroachment of the right-sided exiting nerve roots within the neural foramen.At C7-T1 there is no significant compromise to the spinal canal or neural foramina.The vertebral artery flow voids appear to be intact.There is a T1 and T2 hyperintense focus within the C7 vertebral body and left lateral aspect. It is well-circumscribed.
1.There are degenerative changes present in the cervical spine associated with encroachment of exiting nerve roots within the neural foramina on the right side at C4-5 and C6-7 and bilaterally at C5-6
