Things I underlined look mostly fine.

Things I bolded need some attention.

************************************************** ********************



Pelvis:
The osseous structures of the pelvis and proximal femora are intact. The femoral heads are well-seated within the acetabulum with joint space narrowing greater on the right than left and associated osteophytes on the right. Heterotopic ossifications greater on the right than left at the greater tuberosities.
Mild degenerative changes of the right SI joint. The pubic symphysisis maintained.
significant degenerative changes of the lower lumbar spine.


Knees:
The knees are grossly intact with joint space narrowing of the medial compartment bilaterally greater on the right and left.


IMPRESSION:
1.Mild/moderate osteoarthrosis of the right hip with mild
osteoporosis of the left hip.
2. Limited evaluation = the bilateral knees with bilateral medial
compartment narrowing greater on the right the left.
cervical:

Findings:

C1 is symmetric about C2. The odontoid is intact.
There is
straightening of the normal lordotic curvature likely related to positioning.
No displaced fracture identified.
The prevertebral soft tissues are unremarkable.
Mild degenerative changes with anterior and posterior osteophytes greatest at C6-C7.

Impression:
No acute osseous abnormality, fracture, or dislocation. Mild degenerative changes above


Pelvis:
The osseous structures of the pelvis and proximal femora are intact.
The femoral heads are well-seated within the acetabulum with joint space narrowing greater on the right than left and associated osteophytes on the right.

Osteophytes = bone spurs. They are on the right.


Heterotopic ossifications = presence of bone in soft tissue where bone normally does not exist

tuberosities are the sit bones.


symphysisis = Growning together.

maintained

Knees:
Grossly = to the eye the look o.k.

joint space narrowing of the medial compartment bilaterally greater on the right and left.


IMPRESSION:


1. Mild/moderate osteoarthrosis of the right hip with mild on the left hip


2. Limited evaluation the bilateral knees with bilateral medial


compartment narrowing greater on the right the left. (????? Not sure)



Findings:


odontoid = a toothlike projection from the second cervical vertebra on which the first vertebra pivots.]
It is fine.

straightening of the normal lordotic curvature likely related to positioning.
No displaced fracture identified. The prevertebral soft tissues are unremarkable. O.K.

This might be helpful. Not sure:
>>>Lordosis - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics




>>>Here is a page about D6 and C7 in the neck/spine
All about the C6-C7 Spinal Segment in the Neck
