What does sulcal effacement mean?
Suical effacement and the resultant CSF increase causing pressure in the brain and spinal column causes atrophy of the brain. Death can also result from this condition.
What does effacement of sulci mean?
As the ventricles enlarge with CSF under pressure, the brain is squeezed with the result that the gyri come together…emptying the subarachnoid spaces (sulci) of CSF. Refers to condition of not being able to visualize sulci on CT.
What is total effacement of csf anterior to the cord?
Total effacement of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) anterior to the spinal cord refers to the complete loss of the CSF space in front of the spinal cord, typically due to conditions such as a mass effect from a tumor, hematoma, or other lesions. This can lead to increased pressure on the spinal cord, potentially causing neurological deficits. The imaging findings may show the absence of the subarachnoid space normally filled with CSF, which is critical for cushioning and protecting the spinal cord. This condition requires prompt evaluation and management to prevent irreversible damage.
What does anterior displacement and effacement of the cord at T7 with prominent posterior CSF space?
Anterior displacement and effacement of the spinal cord at the T7 vertebra, along with a prominent posterior cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) space, typically suggest the presence of a mass effect in the thoracic region, such as from a tumor or herniated disc. This displacement can indicate compression of the cord, potentially leading to neurological deficits. The prominent posterior CSF space may indicate that the cord is being pushed forward, resulting in a larger space behind it. Clinical correlation and further imaging studies are often necessary to determine the exact cause and appropriate management.
What is foraminal effacement?

Effacement of the epidural fat?
There is mild narrowing of the central canal and teh lumbar spine. This in combination with prominent epidural fat, results in Effecement of Ceberal Spinal Fluid (CSF) around the nerve roots in the thecal sac.
