Cervical mri shows various degrees of central canal narrowing, foraminal narrowing, herniations ect. does no abnormal spinal cord signal mean no myelopathy? there is no mention of myelopathy in the mri report. thanks.

Any symptoms?: Why were these studies done? All laboratory results and imaging data need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that, it would be prudent to consult a neurologist. Wish you good health!
