Name of the Patient : Abc Xyztala Tlmn / F / 45 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzah.
Examination : Intracranial and Neck M.R.A.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O weakness of the RUE with twisting of mouth towards the left for 15 minutes (4 episodes) since 4-5 months. ? TIA.

EXAMINATION :

The brain was screened with 5 mm thick T2 Weighted axial images.

Intracranial and neck MRA were performed with 3D TOF and 2D TOF sequences, respectively.

OBSERVATION :

There is no focal area of altered signal intensity within the brain parenchyma (Areas of calcification seen within the pons on the CT Scan are not seen on the MRI).

Both the lateral, third and the fourth ventricles are normal. There is slight prominence of the cerebral cortical sulci and cerebellar folia and basal cisternal spaces bilaterally. There is no shift of the midline structures.

INTRACRANIAL MRA :

The petrous, cavernous and supraclinoid segments of the internal carotid arteries bilaterally show normal signal and calibre. The visualized anterior cerebral, middle cerebral, basilar, vertebral and posterior cerebral arteries also show normal signal, calibre and wall margins. No obvious aneurysm or vascular malformation is identified.




- 2 - scan-00003

NECK MRA :

The common carotid arteries and their extracranial branches appear normal bilaterally. There are no vessel wall irregularities or stenosis of the vessels noted.

IMPRESSION :

Mild cerebral and cerebellar atrophy.

No significant abnormality is detected on the intracranial and neck MRA on this study.
