Name of the Patient : Abc Xyz Tunglmn / M / 60 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzlkaka.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O speech disturbances since 3-4 days.
Known diabetic. On Rx.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I of the brain was performed using the following parameters :
5 mm thick T1 Weighted, proton and T2 Weighted axial images.
5 mm thick FLAIR coronal images.
5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images.
OBSERVATION :
There is a focal hyperintense signal on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images in the left corona radiata, posteriorly. This lesion appears hypointense to normal white matter on the T1 Weighted images.
The brainstem is unremarkable.
Both the lateral, third and the fourth ventricles are normal.
There is slight prominence of the cerebellar cortical sulci and the basal cisternal spaces bilaterally. There is no shift of the midline structures. No obvious vascular anomaly is identified on this study.
Inflammatory changes are noted in the paranasal sinus bilaterally.
IMPRESSION :
Altered signal in the left corona radiata, posteriorly most likely represents an ischemic lesion, probably recent in the given clinical setting.
