Name of the Patient : Abc XyzDlmn / F / 24 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzhalani.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Sella & Perisellar Region.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O Cushings disease.
For follow-up.

EXAMINATION :

M.R.I of the sella and perisellar region was performed using the following parameters :

3 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted coronal images.

3 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images.

After administration of contrast 3 mm thick T1 Weighted coronal and sagittal images (with magnetization transfer) were obtained.

The brain was screened with 5 mm thick T2 Weighted axial images and 5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images. After contrast administration 5 mm thick T1 Weighted axial images (with magnetization transfer) of the brain were obtained.

OBSERVATION :

The left half of the anterior pituitary gland is reduced in height as compared to the right, and nearly appears as an empty sella. The right half of the anterior pituitary gland measures approximately 5.0 mms in height. The posterior pituitary gland shows normal hyperintense signal on the T1 Weighted images. No focal mass lesion is identified in the pituitary gland. The pituitary stalk is slightly pulled to the right. The suprasellar cistern and the cavernous sinuses on either side are unremarkable. The hypothalamus is also unremarkable.





After administration of contrast the anterior pituitary gland shows uniform enhancement without a focal mass lesion.

The T2 Weighted axial images of the brain show prominent perivascular spaces. The ventricular system is unremarkable. There is no midline shift. No abnormal enhancement is noted in the brain parenchyma or along the meninges.

IMPRESSION :

As compared to the previous MRI (scan no.0000) dated 00.00.00,
there is no significant change noted.
