There is mild right and mild to moderate left facet arthropathy. A small amount of fluid is present in the left facet joint. There is mild left neural foraminal narrowing.
L5/S1: There is mild disc desiccation. There is Modic Tyope II discogenic change on the right side. A small concentric disc buldge is present with a far right paracentral disc protrusion.
