How serious is my MRI?

[BM1980]

How bad is my MRI?     Interpretation: The cervical vertebral bodies maintain normal height and alignment.  There is multilevel disc dessiccation.
At C2-3, there is no stenosis.

At C3-4, there is a small posterior disc osteophyte complex but no significant stenosis.

At C4-5, there is a posterior disc osteophyte complex with mild narrowing of the AP diameter of the canal.

At C5-6, there is a prominent right paracentral disc osteophtye complex/protrusion with mass effect on the cord. There is extension into the right neural foramen resulting in severe right neural foraminal stenosis.

At C6-7, there is a posterior disc osteophyte complex and there is mild canal stenosis. There is moderate right and  mild left neural foraminal stenosis. There is a probable nerve root sheath cyst on the right.

At C7-T1, there is no significant stenosis. A small cyst is also noted within the right neural foramina at this level.

The cord signal appears normal.

Impression: Degenerative change most pronounced at c5-6 where there is a large right paracentral disc protrusion/osteophyte complex with mass effect on the cord and severe right neural foraminal stenosis. Neurosurgical consultation is advised.
