Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzen Almn / F / 65 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyz Shah.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
Known hypertensive & diabetic. On Rx.
C/O depression with non-responsiveness since 1 day.
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.
OBSERVATION :
There is an ill-defined, hyperintense signal on the proton and T2 Weighted images in the right posterior parietal periventricular white matter, which most likely represents ischemic changes.
There is mild fullness of both the lateral ventricles. The third and the fourth ventricles are normal. There is 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.
Incidental note is made of an empty sella.
IMPRESSION :
1. An empty sella.
2. Age related cerebral and cerebellar atrophy.
3. Altered signal in the right posterior parietal periventricular white matter, most likely represents ischemic changes.
