Subject: Cerebellar tonsil(s)?

Is cerebellar tonsil singular or pleural?  This could go cerebellar tonsils noted or cerebellar tonsil is noted as follows, and thanks for the help:


Inferior positioning or herniation of the cerebellar tonsils noted below the level of the foramen magnum into the upper cervical spinal canal posteriorly, consistent with Chiari I malformation.
