Loss of disc signal is something commonly seen on an MRI report. It means that there has been some degeneration of the disc.
It means that everything is the way it should be in your cervical spine. Nothing is wrong.
If MRI data is stored on tape, then it can't be played on any disc player. If the data is formatted as a television signal and then stored on a DVD, it is quite possible that the images can be played to a television.
After mri,on lower spine what does clinical correlation mean
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.
It depend on the specific MRI sequence, but the likely cause would be dehydration of the disc. This is usually caused by disc disease and can lead to other problems such as disc herniations or subluxation.
Signal loss and volume loss in the c4-c5 and c6-c7 discs on an MRI report typically indicate degenerative changes or disc degeneration. Reparative endplate enhancement at c7 suggests a healing response to injury or inflammation. The presence of these findings may contribute to symptoms such as neck pain, stiffness, or decreased range of motion.
Fairly rare MRI term associated with spondylolisthesis at the L5/S1 level... The disk is dragged forward by the spinal slippage and on MRI appears to be herniated (which it isn't)...

What does heterogeneous signal mean within pancreas
Yes. There's no real limit to how many MRIs you can have because there's no radiation involved - it uses powerful magnets. The only thing is that a cervical spine MRI and a brain MRI all at the same time might take quite a while so it's senisible to space it out a bit.
