# Notes and Comments (NTE)
For Radiology and Transcription results, please have put the results in the NTE segment. Elation does not have a character limit per NTE segment, and our system will automatically weave the data to format properly under the Reports tab in the patient chart. Please be sure follow the guidelines below:
1. We can accept the full paragraph in one NTE segment. OR
2. You can format the line breaks into separate NTE segments appropriately. Each new NTE segment will appear in the next line of Elation's report.

NTE|30|L|were performed with fat saturation.
NTE|31|L|FINDINGS
NTE|32|L|
NTE|33|L|Extensive white laminectomies from L2-L5 enhancing granulation tissue is noted
NTE|34|L|within the operative bed. There is significant inflammatory enhancement involving
NTE|35|L|the left L4-5 facet with extension into the left neural foramen and left lateral
NTE|36|L|and anterior epidural space. Significant enlargement/hypertrophy of the left L4-5
NTE|37|L|facet. Enhancement encases the left L4 nerve root and the left L5 nerve root. No
NTE|38|L|localized rim-enhancing fluid collection. Previously noted left iliopsoas and
NTE|39|L|paraspinous muscular rim-enhancing collections are no longer present
NTE|40|L|
NTE|41|L|Small residual central/left central protrusion measuring approximately 3 mm in
NTE|42|L|diameter. Asymmetric left facet arthropathy. These findings contribute to
NTE|43|L|asymmetric left subarticular recess narrowing and displacement of the left
NTE|44|L|traversing L5 nerve root. There is mild right foraminal narrowing.
NTE|45|L|
NTE|46|L|At L2-3 there is a left foraminal annular fissure and protrusion measuring
NTE|47|L|approximately 3-4 mm in diameter causing mild displacement of the left L2 nerve
NTE|48|L|root in the neural foramen. Central canal and right neural foramen are patent.
NTE|49|L|At L3-4, there is subtle grade 1 retrolisthesis with broad disc bulging measuring
NTE|50|L|approximately 3 mm in diameter. There is mild endplate osteophyte formation and
NTE|51|L|mild foraminal narrowing. Central canal is decompressed.
NTE|52|L|
NTE|53|L|At L5-S1, there is a right central/subarticular annular fissure and a central to
NTE|54|L|right subarticular shallow protrusion measuring approximately 3 mm in diameter.
NTE|55|L|No S1 nerve root displacement. Mild right greater left foraminal narrowing.
NTE|56|L|
NTE|57|L|Conus medullaris is normal in size and configuration terminating at the L1
NTE|58|L|vertebral body level. Stable left renal cystic change.
