s/l *epidural bar and broad line * pls sm
Subject: s/l *epidural bar and broad line * pls sm

The canal was narrowed to 7 mm, and the disc osteophyte complex extended 4 mm into the canal.  At C6-7 there was moderate disc space narrowing with broad-based disc osteophyte complex, mild anterior s/l *epidural bar and broad line *central stenosis, a filling defect in the right neural foramen possibly representing a lateral disc protrusion, which would impact the exiting C7 nerve root, and a filling defect extending 7 mm in length x 4 mm.  It was uncertain whether this represented disc or disc osteophyte. 


This doesn't seem to make sense..  Any suggestions here? thanks

    MRI lumbar spine
    Subject: MRI lumbar spine

    Once again, I am trying to make sense of the hospital radiology reports.  Noncontrast MRI of lumbar spine shows a clonus ending posterior to L1.   It does not sound right to me.  clonus does not make sense but I do not type much radiology.  Anyone have a clue what else it could be?  It does sound like he is saying clonus.???  Thanks
