The physician reading your MRI study is asking that the ordering physician to provide more info regarding your complaint. Although are you certain it is C8? We typically have 7 cervical vertebrae.

@jenatsky The numbering system for spinal nerves does have a C8 nerve root even though there are only 7 cervical vertebrae. I questioned that too when I saw it on my reports, but it is a normal finding.
