Loss of disc signal in a cervical MRI typically indicates dehydration or degeneration of the intervertebral discs, which can be a sign of conditions such as disc herniation or degenerative disc disease. This loss of signal reflects changes in the disc's water content and structural integrity, potentially leading to pain, reduced mobility, or nerve compression. Clinicians often assess these findings in conjunction with other imaging and clinical symptoms to determine appropriate treatment options.

What is loss of intevertebral disc signal?
Loss of disc signal is something commonly seen on an MRI report. It means that there has been some degeneration of the disc.
What does the bone marrow signal intensity of the vertebrae is unremarkable on a cervical MRI mean?
It means that everything is the way it should be in your cervical spine. Nothing is wrong.
What does a herniated disc neck look like?
A herniated disc in the neck, also known as cervical disc herniation, typically results in a bulging or protruding disc that can press on nearby nerves or the spinal cord. This condition may cause symptoms such as neck pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness in the arms or hands. On imaging studies like MRI, it appears as a displaced or deformed disc in the cervical spine region, often with accompanying inflammation or nerve compression. The affected area may show signs of degeneration or damage to the disc structure.
Can you play a MRI tape on a DVD player?
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.
What does this mean from an MRI L5 S1 disc space is mildly narrowed and the disc is desiccated reactive signal changes in the adjacent vertebral bone marrow?
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.

Why would a Disc appear black on mri?
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.
What does the term lobular bulge in a cervical spine MRI mean?
A lobular bulge in a cervical spine MRI refers to a localized, rounded protrusion of intervertebral disc material that extends beyond the normal disc contour. This bulge can compress nearby structures such as nerves or the spinal cord, potentially leading to symptoms like pain or neurological deficits. It is characterized by its lobular shape, indicating that the bulge is not uniform but rather has distinct, rounded extensions. Such findings are significant in assessing spinal health and diagnosing related conditions.
What does it mean when my mri report says signal loss and volume loss in c4-c5 and c6-c7 with reparative endplate enhancement at c7 superior endplate and in the foramen on the left at c6-c7?
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.
Moderate to severe degenerative loss of disc height at the lumbosacral junction with mild degenerative type posterior subluxation and associated broad-based annular disc bulge which is subligamentous?
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 broad based disc bulge mean in MRI?
is broad base central superimposed disc bad
