Sounds like a radiologist saying that he doesn't see any signs of squeezing of nerves on an X-ray.
Neural compression syndrome is a medical condition where you have pressure on a single nerve. This will cause pain, numbness, and tingling.
Narrowing of the neural foramina is the constriction of the nerve passageways, or foramina, in the spine. This results in compression of the nerve.
It means that even though there is compression of the material between the discs there is no interference or pressure being put on the nerves that pass between them to the body.
iT MEANS THAT THE OPENINGS WHERE THE NERVES COME THROUGH THE VERTIFRAL SPACES ORE OPEN.....THERE IS NO COMPRESSION OF THOSE NERVES CAUSED AT THAT POINT....
What do they do for this. It is some kind of operation done?
This typically indicates that there is no obvious compression or narrowing of the central canal or neural foramen at the C2-C3 level of the spine. "Patent" means that these spaces are open and unobstructed. It suggests there are no significant structural abnormalities in this area.
Neural foraminal compromise is the narrowing of the spinal column. It is the result of disc degeneration over a period of time. Bulging and narrowing of the spinal column, or foramen, causes nerve compression or bulging in the affected area.
The ICD-9 code for neural foranimal stenosis is 724.9. Foranimal stenosis is nerve compression of the nerve that leaves the spinal canal through the foramen. It can occur in the neck or lower back.
Neural Tube Defect
neuroforaminal narrowing
It means that before the compression, the volume is 71 times larger than after the compression.
The Neural Foramen are grooves in the vertebra, just behind the vertebral body that the nerves that branch off the spinal cord exit the spinal canal from. If they are grossly patent they are open, and free from obstruction, so there is no compression of the nerves that course through these channels.
