MRI shows the following
- on T1W & T2W sagittal planes the disc between L4/L5 and L5/S1 showed degeneration and protrusion beyond disc margin, compressing the cauda equina and encroaching the adjacent neural foramen
- T2W axial images show postero-lateral right side herniation of disc material effacing the right neural foramen at L4/L5 and L5/S1 levels
- The myelogram in sagittal and coronal planes show a well defined lateral indentation due to disc material
