Name of the Patient : Abc XyzChlmn / M / 27 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzah.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O seizures since 10-12 years.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I of the brain was performed using the following parameters :
5 mm thick T1 Weighted, proton and T2 Weighted axial images.
3 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted coronal images.
OBSERVATION :
There is a focal hypointensity on the proton and T2 Weighted images at the tip of a gyrus in the left frontal lobe. It has mixed characteristics on the T1 Weighted images and a diameter of approximately 1.1 cms.
The hippocampus is unremarkable on either side.
Both the lateral, third and the fourth ventricles are normal.
There is slight prominence of the cerebral cortical sulci and cerebellar folia bilaterally. The basal cisternal spaces are unremarkable. There is no shift of the midline structures. No obvious vascular anomaly is identified on this study.
IMPRESSION :
The MRI features are suggestive of a focal area of altered signal intensity in the left frontal region as described. This may represent a calcified granuloma.
