I am not sure how to translate ampiezza in this context:
Canale rachideo (spinal canal) *di ampiezza nei limiti* nel restante tratto lombare esaminato.
Cono midollare (conus medullaris) *in sede di ampiezza* e morfologia regolare.
Thanks.

Thanks.

...is OK for "ampiezza"; "in sede" just means "in its (proper) place".
They're saying that the conus medullaris is of normal width and morphology, and in its proper place.

: So in the second instance it's "di ampiezza e morfologia regolare", with regolare relating to both di ampiezza and morfologia.

This is a complete guess, but isn't the spinal canal a kind of tube?
