Radiology ReportPatient Name: John DoePatient ID: 123456Date of Birth: 01/15/1975Date of Examination: 10/20/2023Referring Physician: Dr. Jane SmithExamination: MRI of the Lumbar SpineClinical Indication:Chronic lower back pain with intermittent radiculopathy. Rule out disc herniation or spinal stenosis.Technique:MRI of the lumbar spine was performed without contrast. Sagittal T1, T2, and STIR sequences, as well as axial T2-weighted images, were obtained.Findings:- Alignment: Normal lumbar lordosis is maintained. No evidence of spondylolisthesis.- Vertebral Bodies: Normal height and signal intensity of the vertebral bodies. No acute fractures or marrow edema.- Intervertebral Discs:- L1-L2 through L3-L4: Normal disc height and signal. No disc bulge or herniation.- L4-L5: Mild disc degeneration with a small central disc protrusion, mildly indenting the thecal sac without significant canal stenosis.- L5-S1: Moderate disc degeneration with a broad-based disc bulge causing mild bilateral foraminal narrowing. No significant nerve root impingement.- Spinal Canal and Neural Foramina: No significant spinal canal stenosis. Mild bilateral foraminal narrowing at L5-S1 as noted.- Conus Medullaris: Terminates at the L1 level and appears normal.Impression:1. Mild disc degeneration at L4-L5 with a small central disc protrusion, without significant canal stenosis.2. Moderate disc degeneration at L5-S1 with a broad-based disc bulge causing mild bilateral foraminal narrowing, without significant nerve root impingement.3. No evidence of acute fracture or significant spinal canal stenosis.Recommendations:Clinical correlation is recommended. Consideration for physical therapy and pain management. Follow-up imaging if symptoms persist or worsen.Radiologist: Dr. Emily CarterDate of Report: 10/21/2023
