What Does The Following X-ray Report Analysis Indicate?
I had x-rays done for my back and they came back stating that I had mild degenerative changes in the thoracic and lumbosacral spine with presences of anterolateral osteophytes at multiple levels. Also, Mild dextroscolisis noted in the thoracolumbar region. What does that mean?
