No thickening of the ligamentum flavum and no stenosis of the spinal canal are part of the spine’s condition that is described by imaging tests, and the corresponding results suggest no abnormalities.
During a CT or MRI examination of the spine, the condition of the ligamentum flavum and the spinal canal are described; no thickening of the ligamentum flavum means that the thickness of the ligamentum flavum is less than 5 millimeters, and no stenosis of the spinal canal means that the spinal canal as a whole has not narrowed (anterior and posterior cervical diameters of greater than 13 millimeters, anterior and posterior thoracic diameters of greater than 12 millimeters, and anterior and posterior lumbar diameters of greater than 15 millimeters). The corresponding results of the overall examination are normal.
Corresponding results need to be combined with the vertebrae, intervertebral discs and spinal cord to make a comprehensive judgment, and need to be combined with clinical symptoms, under the guidance of the clinician for standardized treatment.
