Retrolisthesis, is a posterior (rear) displacement of a vertebral body less than one degree of luxation (dislocation). The grading system is measured from Grade 1 (lowest degree of displacement) to Grade 4 (highest degree).
C5 is the vertebrae that is displaced due to retrolisthesis, or the 5th Cervical Spinal Vertebrae (neck).
A posterior displacement of up to ¼ of the IVF is graded as Grade 1.
HI
Grade 2 subluxation of the L3 and L4 vertebrae refers to a partial dislocation or misalignment of these lumbar vertebrae, where there is a moderate degree of displacement. This condition can lead to nerve compression and associated symptoms such as pain, numbness, or weakness in the lower back and legs. It may result from trauma, poor posture, or degenerative conditions. Treatment often includes physical therapy, chiropractic adjustments, and in some cases, medication to manage pain and inflammation.
Put your hands on your hips with your thumbs pointed towards your back. If you follow your thumbs back to your spine you are approximately at the L3-L4 disk level.
in adults its done at L3 and L4 or L4 and L5
Endplate changes at L3-L4 refer to alterations or abnormalities in the vertebral endplates, which are the surfaces of the vertebrae that interface with the intervertebral discs. These changes can indicate degenerative processes, such as osteoarthritis or disc degeneration, and may be associated with conditions like pain or reduced spinal mobility. They are often observed on imaging studies, such as MRI or X-rays, and may require further evaluation depending on the patient's symptoms.

yes i have been diagnosed with degenerative spondylosis
Small anterior osteophytes at the L2, L3, and L4 levels refer to bony projections that develop on the front (anterior) aspect of the vertebrae in the lumbar region of the spine. These osteophytes typically form as a result of degenerative changes, often associated with conditions like osteoarthritis or disc degeneration. They can indicate age-related wear and tear and may or may not be related to symptoms such as pain or stiffness. If symptomatic, they may contribute to spinal canal narrowing or nerve root compression.
