Spinal MRI report
Hola colegas:
Estoy traduciendo un reporte de una resonancia magnética de una lesión en la espalda, y me encuentro con un termino en español el cual no logro encontrar satisfactoriamente en inglés.
El termino: Complejo osteodiscal
Contexto:
Complejo osteodiscal: Leve grado de deshidratación de L3 a S1. Espacios intersomáticos relativamente respetados.
Lo he encontrado como "Osteo-discal complex", pero me suena muy calcado y poco confiable debido a las pocas fuentes en donde lo he encontrado.
¿Alguien tiene alguna idea?
De antemano, muchas gracias.

Note from asker:
| Thank you Gabriela. I went down the disc osteophyte complex rabbit hole via radiopaedia, but it didn't match what the report was saying. Luckily the patient is not suffering from this complex. |

: The description of the report do not seem to relate to the pathological findings referred to in the Disc osteophyte complex.
