[MRI Cervical spine
Cerebellar tonsillar position is normal. Spinal cord outines and signals at C1-1, C2-3, C4-5 levels appear unremarkable.

At the C5-6 level there is mild broad-based disc bulge with anteroposterior diameter of the spinal canal in the sagittal plane with mild or borderline changes of central canal narrowing with slight accentuation to the right side.

Conclusion: Mild broad-based disc bulge at C5-6 level with questionable or borderline changes of central canal narrowing with slight accentuation to the right side.

For MRI lumboscral spine:
Minimal or mild disc bulges are noted at T11-12, T12-L1 level. No significant changes of spinal stenosis seen. There is mild posterolateral disc bulge at the L1-2 level with slight accentuation to the left side.
At the L2-3 level no significant changes of disc herniation or spinal stenosis seen. At the L3-4 level appearance suggests mild hypertrophic changes in the facet joints and hypertrophy of the posterior bony elements. No significant changes of disc herniation or spinal stenosis seen.
At the L4-5 level hpertrophic changers were noted in the facet joints with central/paracentral disc hrniation bilaterally with advanced changes of central canal and bilateral foraminal narrowing.
At the L5-S1 level mild broad-based disc buldge is noted with borderline changes of central canal and questionable or borderline changes of bilateral foraminal narrowing.

Conclusion: Large central/paracentral disc herniation at the L4-5 level with appearance also suggesting hypertrophic changes in the facet joints with advanced changes of central canal and bilateral foraminnal narrowing.........]
