So if you ask the MRI facility that you normally use or you have one yourself, I would really suggest distinguishing yourself from the rest of the units in your area by supplying oblique MRI views of the cervical spine. I think this is a much better representation of the size and how much this disc extrusion occupies the foraminal canal than a standard axial view. And if we take a look at the obliques of the foraminal canal, this is given a much larger appearance of the disc extrusion, and where we’re going to see it located is right there. Now look at how much larger this appears here at the 5/6th level with the oblique views. Let’s just take a look and see what happens when we take a look at an oblique picture. So I don’t think this is such a great revelation in terms of what’s happening in the Foraminal Canal. The radiologists have better equipment and magnification and resolution than I do on this reader, but I have probably the typical kind of reader that most of you all might have as well. If you are using 'RPO' or 'RAO' markers, it doesnt matter. To identify anterior from posterior oblique views, if you are only using 'R' and 'L' markers, the marker should be placed in front of the spine for anterior obliques and behind the spine for posterior obliques. And if you keep going again, everything sort of disappears. The central ray should be at the C4 level. We can see it’s again smaller, but not really that big. We take a look at the axial slice, and we don’t really get a great sense of how big it is here. However, if you go to the sides, for example, we can see this protrusion here. Well, it’s got a little bit of protrusion and maybe a little indentation of the myelin, but nothing to write home about. In this case, we have a definite protrusion at cervical 5/6, and we can see it’s here, but we don’t really get a true sense of dimension using the the axial slices. One of the challenges when looking at cervical MRIs is really getting a proper look at the foraminal canals, particularly at the cervical levels 3/4 4/5 5/6, and even 6/7.
