Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzalata Salmn / F / 49 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzisheri.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O seizures since 0000. On anti-epileptics.

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.
4 mm thick FLAIR coronal images.

OBSERVATION :

There is thickening of the gyri in the left inferior frontal region anteriorly and appears hypointense to normal grey matter on the T1 Weighted images which is seen to turn hyperintense on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images. Minimal subcortical white matter edema is noted.

Both the lateral, third and the fourth ventricles are normal. 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 thickening of the gyri in the left inferior frontal region anteriorly and is not specific for a single etiology. This may represent contusion (? fall). The possibility of this being a neoplastic process (? infective) cannot be excluded.

A contrast enhanced scan would be worthwhile.
