Technique: MRI of the lumbosacral spine and sacroiliac joints was performed without contrast
using routine protocols.
Findings:
There is mild straightening of normal lordotic curvature of the lumbar spine. No AP subluxation.
The lumbar vertebral body heights are maintained. No compression collapse or destruction of
vertebrae noted on given images. Vertebral marrow demonstrates normal signal.
There is normal disc hydration signal and height throughout the lumbar spine.
There are no signal abnormalities in the region of conus medullaris which terminates at normal
level.
Both sacroiliac joints appear intact on given limited T2-coronal sequence. The joint space is of
normal width on both sides. The joint contours are smooth. The subchondral bone marrow appears
normal.
There is pelvic tilt with convexity towards the right side. Please correlate with plain radiograph. If
pain persists follow up with STIR / T1 sequences through the sacroiliac joints are suggested.
L1-L2: There is no significant disc bulge. Patent spinal canal and neural foramina.
L2-L3: There is no significant disc bulge. Patent spinal canal and neural foramina.
L3-L4: There is mild approximately 2.0 mm broad based disc bulge that effaces the thecal sac.
Mild bilateral neural foraminal stenosis noted. Patent spinal canal.
L4-L5: There is mild approximately 2.0 mm broad based disc bulge that effaces the thecal sac.
Mild bilateral neural foraminal stenosis noted. Patent spinal canal.
L5-S1: There is no significant disc bulge. Patent spinal canal and neural foramina.
Impression:
Both sacroiliac joints appear intact on given limited T2-coronal sequence. Pelvic tilt with
convexity towards the right side. Please correlate with plain radiograph. If pain persists follow
up with STIR / T1 sequences through the sacroiliac joints are suggested.

SPINE
Straightening of the lumbar spine.
At L3-L4 level, mild bilateral neural foraminal stenosis due to mild broad based disc bulge.
At L4-L5 level, mild bilateral neural foraminal stenosis due to mild broad based disc bulge.
Please correlate clinically.
