What is the yellowish region on the retina lateral to the optic disc?
macula
What is osteophytic encroachment of the neural central joints at C56?
Osteophytic encroachment of the neural central joints at C5-6 is when degeneration of a disc causes obstruction. This obstruction occurs at the foramina at C4-5.
Left lateral recess?
The left lateral recess refers to a condition whereby the narrowing reduces the available space within the exit doorway of the spinal canal. The left lateral recess may be caused by the arthritic overgrowth of the facet joints of the degeneration of the disc with the loss of the disc height.
What is the mean of L4-5 disc shows large posterolateral disc protrusion indenting the thecal sac and compromising both the lateral recesses?
posterocentral
What does mild generalized broad-based bulging of the disk C5-C6 with slight encroachment of both lateral recesses?
ment of both lataral recesses
What does “ broad-based disc bulging slightly asymmetric to the left with associated posterior lateral spurs?
This is called a broad based disc herniation
What its encroachment of the right and left foramina?
It's basically compression of your spine by the surrounding canal in the specific area your doctor is speaking of. Foramina, in this case, are the spaces in between your vertebrae. Encroachment is squeezing or compression of those spaces. I have bilateral bony foraminal encroachment of some of the disc spaces of my C spine. It doesn't normally bother me at all, though.

What is broad shallow disc herniation at c6-c7 larger near the midline with encroachment upon the thecal sac and spinal cord?
wide herniation that is larger at center mid-line pushing the disc out and beginning to but not yet touch or push on the thecal sac.
When was Environmental Encroachment created?
Environmental Encroachment was created in 1996.
What does it mean by a minor bulging annulus or disc spur complex is appreciated at the c4 c5 level causing minimal impression on the anterior thecal sac and right foraminal encroachment?
Sounds like it's directly from a MRI report..... The annulus is the outer layers of the disc. A disc/spur complex would mean a combination of the disc bulge and spurring (rough edges) of bone. c4-c5 is referring to the disc/disc space between the 4th and 5th cervical (neck) vertebrae. The thecal sac surrounds the spinal cord and holds fluid that surrounds the cord. Yours is being mildly compressed at the level of c4-c5. Right foraminal encroachment means that the opening (foramen) where a nerve exits the spine is more narrow than normal.
