Neuroforaminal stenosis is acceptable if okay with your account specifics. It is considered a neologism.

neuroforaminal vs neural foraminal
Subject: neuroforaminal vs neural foraminal
I know I am responding to a very old post, but those of you who use "neural foraminal" as opposed to "neuroforaminal" in your transcriptions are correct. I am a Certified Court Reporter in the state of Texas and a Registered Professional Court Reporter at the national level. I've been so-licensed for 25 years, and I always see the two-word error. And it's AMAZING how often the radiologists are incorrect and ESPECIALLY their staff. Though using the medical combining forms is often the most common, in this case, it is incorrect. But, like some of the others said in their posts, who's going to argue with the doc?
Congrats on standing up for yourself!

Neuroforaminal versus neural foraminal (warning: rant ahead)
Subject: Neuroforaminal versus neural foraminal (warning: rant ahead)
I know this has been discussed before, but I have never typed anything except "neural foraminal," and when I first started with this particular account, all the templates had "neural foraminal stenosis" as one of the headings on the spine CTs and MRIs.
Now the "billing and coding specialist" who is in charge of the account (and who is obviously not a trained transcriptionist - she typed "flebolith" on one report I saw), has changed all the templates to "neuroforaminal," and when I just changed them back, she sent me a nasty little note saying "Don't change the templates."
Well, you should have seen the sorry state the templates were in when I started here. I have spent hours of my OWN time (I am paid by the line) not only cleaning up the templates but also standardizing the naming of the templates so that they can be found easily using the wild card notation.
I am tempted to send an email back saying, "Okay, I'll leave them that way, but 'neuroforaminal' is incorrect" but I am leaving this account as soon as they have my replacement trained.
In fact, I just sent it. I'm leaving, got nothing to lose, and actually have more work than I can comfortably handle right now. I really wish she would tell me she didn't need me any more. 
Oh, I just got her reply: "Actually, no it is not [incorrect]. That is how it was always spelled before we hired ____________ [MTSO] and that is how all of the rads wanted it spelled."
So be it.

spinal stenosis
Subject: spinal stenosis
Spinal stenosis is ONLY of the spine and is not found in other parts of the body. I do ortho and the previous poster is incorrect. That's why it's called 'spinal' meaning of the spine. Stenosis can occur in other parts, but spinal stenosis is only of the spine.
