Straightening of the cervical lordosis is a straight neck which is also called military neck or cervical kyphosis. If this curvature loss is significant you may experience neck pain/stiffness, shoulder pain and headaches. A traction neck pillow can help with neck pain.
Degenerative disc disease (DDD) is not really a disease but this term is used to describe the changes in your spinal discs as you age. The symptoms of DDD vary from person to person and there may be no symptoms at all.

Yes, an MRI can produce images radio waves and unlike conventional x-ray examinations and computed tomography (CT) scans, MRI does not depend on ionizing radiation. It seems, generally, the differentiation of abnormal tissue from normal tissue is often better with MRI then x-ray, CT and echo.
But the state-of-art CT scan, slice 64 and higher has reduced radiation.
Hope this helps.
Just to clarify, my question was - Are T1 or T2 weighted images/sequences/scans necessary to see lesions? On my MRI report it says that the T1/T2 sequence was used on my cervical spine but it doesn't specifically say that on the protocol for my brain. That was my confusion but, according to shell, it looks like the protocol was good even though it doesn't specifically say T1 or T2 was used on the brain scan.
Iv had every test you can which of,they came back normal apart from a xray from a private chiro saying my necks not right. I got my mri brain scan from the hospital that i had done last year in april and it shows my neck.They seem to think iv had it since birth as i had foreceps,i havent had any accidents in my life that could cause this :S.
not sure if i trust chiro as after a few adjustments they want me to do cranial therapy,which is ment to be aloud of kak.

Hi all. I recently had a back mri scan with the use of contrast dye as I had a discectomy November 2018 . I paid for the scan image on cd but haven’t had the results yet. Obviously I’m not medically trained so have no idea what the images look like however I wondered if anyone know what the few blobs are on a image that are next to the spine? As they came back as a white glow.
How long do xrays and MRIs last? As in how often should I get a bone xray or MRI if I had it in the past? Every year? Every 6 months? 3 months? I had a xray and MRI done about 6 months ago for my neck stenosis and I took it to a new surgeon today for a second opinion. The nurse asked if I had an xray done recently and that's what I provided her. Do you think it was outdated and that I need a new one?
It is a warning sign. Imaging shows abnormalities, but the symptoms and images improve. Might I suggest you ask for an MRI instead of a CT scan. My daughter had a stroke whilst playing volleyball at school. A CT scan was non specific, an MRI showed a massive stroke originating in the MCA decimating the basal ganglia, entire caudate and lentiform areas of the brain. She followed this first stroke with a hemorragic stroke further damaging the brain.
