Can an MRI detect spine-related complications?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Thank you for your query. I reviewed your reports (attachment removed to protect the patient's identity), and I first want to explain that MRIs are always over diagnostic. Therefore, you need to elaborate more on your symptoms rather than finding a diagnosis from the MRI (magnetic resonance imaging). According to the MRI report, haemangiomas are benign lesions and are not undertaken for treatment unless symptomatic or pose a threat to the surrounding neurological structure. Lumbar disc prolapse or bulge is also a common finding and is managed by conservative treatment unless they are causing neurological symptoms or refractory to conservative treatment. You have not mentioned any problem regarding the hip. The MRI report suggests degenerative changes, which can be present with or without any severe disease; subarticular cysts are also a part of degenerative disease. I hope this has helped you.

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

The straightening of lumbar lordosis is usually a temporary finding due to muscle spasms. Management of the underlying condition resolves pain and muscle spasms, and the spine resumes its normal position. I hope this has helped you.

Thank you.
