Hello,

Can anyone help interpret what these MRI results mean in plain English, and what it likely will mean for me?

History: Neck pain radiating to the right shoulder.

Technique: Multiplanar multisequence images of the cervical spine.

Contrast: None.

and moderate left foraminal narrowing. There is mild central canal

foraminal narrowing. Mild central canal stenosis.
