[|Human|] Please explain mild disc narrowing at C4-5 and C5-6. The cervical thoracic junction looks normal. The cervical cord is normal in signal with mild distortion ventrally at C3-4 and C5-6 secondary to degenerative changes. C3-4 Small posterior disc osteophyte complex, with mild impression upon the ventral thecal sac and distortion of the ventral aspect of the cord. CSF persists around the cord. C5-6: Small posterior disc ostophyte complex, with mile impression upon the ventral thecal sac and minimal distortion of the ventral aspect of the cord. CSF persists around the cord. C7-T1 Small posterior disc osteophyte complex, with overall patent canal.
[|AI|]  Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns. I assume this is an MRI report. It means that you have degenerative disc and cervical vertebral column disease at first stages. There is no need for surgery yet, but you need proper clinical evaluation in correlation with MRI findings, and treatment in order to improve symptoms (I assume you have any) and stop disease progression.  Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow-up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.
