| Need Help to understand MRI report
I need help to understand my MRI report. Can anyone kindly help to explain it in simple and non-technical English to me ?
My MRI report says that
Multifocal enhancing lesions are noted in the cervical and throacic vertebral bodies with T2W/STIR hyperintensities and faint T1W hyper/iso intensities.
There is a straightening of the cervical spine with mild loss of the C4/C5 height.
At C4/C5, there is a central disc protrusion compressing on the cord and dsiplacing it posteriorly. High signals in the cord is noted, likely to represent myelomalacia. There is also moderate bilateral exit foraminal stenosis from uncovertebral OA
At C3/C4, there is posterior osteochondral bar formation which touches the cord anteriorly. Together with uncovertebral OA, there is right exit foramen stenosis.
At C5/C6, there is posterior osteochondral bar formation which indents on the cord anteriorly. Together with uncovertebral OA, there is severe right and mild left forman stenosis.
At C6/C7, there is posterior osteochondral bar formation which indents on the cord anteriorly. Together with uncovertebral OA, there is severe left and moderate right exit foramen stenosis.
Thank you for your kind attention and help.
With Warmest Regards,
Frustratedlor
