What does this mean from an MRI L5 S1 disc space is mildly narrowed and the disc is desiccated reactive signal changes in the adjacent vertebral bone marrow?
If you had an MRI and have a mildly narrowed disc space between L5 S1, it sounds like you have a slightly herniated disc. Whenever your doctor gives you a diagnosis, it is best to ask as many questions as possible such as treatment options, pain management, etc.
What is the average salary for a person that studies anatomy?
I don't know the averqage but for us Radiologic Technologists (xray-techs) in the Northeast part of the country it's about $75,000. We study anatomy and use lots of interesting technology to image every aspect. X-ray, Ultrasound, CT Scanning, Nuclear Medicine, MRI and now PET scanning are some of the modalities.
What is BioImaging?
A term that collectively refers to tools used to create structural or functional images of living objects or systems. Examples are many, including: PET and HRRT PET, MRI and fMRI, MEG, SPECT and so on. Imaging is done on whole body, anatomical areas and regions, tissue, and so on down to the molecular level. I suspect, though I welcome feedback, that a lot of the electrophysiological techniques, such as EEG, EMG, and perhaps even modern cardio monitors produce images, and therefore, are bioimaging devices. what do you think?
Bee sting type pain left knee left side of knee?
sharp pain in the knee when kneeling can be due to injury to ligament, tendon; bursitis; osteoarthritis or rheumatic arthritis etc. You can take antiinflammatory medicines like acetaminophen or ibuprofen and use ice pack. Avoid running up and down stairs .Doing knee exercise will help in stretching and strengthening the muscles that support the knee. Proper footwear is also important, especially if walking or running on hard surfaces. Keep your weight under control, it will reduce stress on the knee. You should get a thorough investigation done like blood test for rheumatic factor, X-ray of knee or MRI for diagnosis. Get in touch with a Orthopedician. Take care.
Cranial sutures?
DefinitionCranial sutures are fibrous bands of tissue that connect the bones of the skull.Alternative NamesFontanelles; Sutures - cranialInformationAn infant's skull is made up of six separate cranial bones (the frontal bone, the occipital bone, two parietal bones, and two temporal bones). These bones are held together by strong, fibrous, elastic tissues called cranial sutures.The spaces between the bones where the sutures are (sometimes known as "soft spots") are called fontanelles. They are a part of normal development. The cranial bones remain separate for about 12-18 months. They then grow together (fuse) as part of normal growth. They stay fused throughout adulthood.Two fontanelles are usually seen on a newborn's skull: one on the top in the middle, just forward of center; and one in the back in the middle. Like the sutures, fontanelles gradually become closed, solid, bony areas. The posterior fontanelle (in the back of the head) usually closes by the time an infant is 1 or 2 months old, or may already be closed at birth. The anterior fontanelle (at the top of the head) usually closes sometime between 9 months and 18 months.The sutures and fontanelles are needed for the infant's brain growth and development. During childbirth, the flexibility of the fibers allows the bones to overlap so the head can pass through the birth canal without pressing on and damaging the infant's brain.During infancy and childhood, the fibers are flexible. This allows the brain to grow quickly and protects the brain from minor impacts to the head (such as when the infant is learning to hold his head up, roll over, and sit up). Without flexible sutures and fontanelles, the child's brain would be constricted in the cranial bones and could not grow enough. The child would develop brain damage.Feeling the cranial sutures and fontanelles is one way that doctors and nurses follow the child's growth and development. They are able to assess the pressure inside the brain by feeling the tension of the fontanelles. The fontanelles should feel flat and firm. Bulging fontanelles may be a sign of increased pressure within the brain. In this case, doctors may need to use imaging techniques such as CT scan or MRI scan. Surgery may be needed to relieve the increased pressure.Sunken, depressed fontanelles are sometimes a sign of dehydration.
What does mri impression findings consistent with musculotendinous strain if the distal semi-membranous otherwise unremarkable exam what does this mean and will it require surgery?

What is unremarkable intervertebral discs?
Unremarkable intervertebral discs refer to discs in the spine that appear normal without any significant abnormalities or findings upon imaging, such as MRI or CT scans. This term is used when there are no signs of degeneration, bulging, herniation, or other pathologies noted in the intervertebral discs.
What is an unremarkable non contrast mr examination of left hip?

The structures of the left hip appear normal without any signs of injury, inflammation, or other issues. Overall, the MRI results are considered within normal limits for the left hip.

What does nerve roots are unremarkable mean?
When a medical report states that nerve roots are unremarkable, it indicates that there are no observable abnormalities or issues with the nerve roots on imaging or examination. This suggests that the nerve roots appear normal and are functioning as expected.
