Consultation/Radiographic
Report
Cervical,
Thoracic and Lumbar Spine:
There is straightening of the normal lordotic curvature of the cervical
spine most likely representing altered biomechanics or muscle spasm.
Noted in the Flexion Extension views there appears to be a motion translation
of C4. There appears to be some anterior head weighting. There is a
moderate right curvature from T12 to T5 and a mild curvature to the
left from T4 to T1. There is a mild left curvature from SR to L1. The
vertebral bodies maintain good alignment, and the disc spaces are preserved
without fracture, dislocation, bone destruction or cyst, degenerative
changes, spondylolisthesis, soft-tissue abnormalities, or foreign body.
Impression: Cervical Hypolordosis. Thoracic Scoliosis. Lumbar Scoliosis.
Numerous
improprieties were identified on the biomechanical report. Please see
the biomechanical report for additional findings.
Continued
conservative treatment is recommended.
