Name of the Patient : Abc XyzGlmn / F / 35 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzhalani.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Sella & Perisellar Region.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O giddiness and headaches (off & on) since 2 years and galactorrhea since 4 years.

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

OBSERVATION :

The pituitary gland is normal in its size, contour and location and reveals normal signal intensity. The posterior pituitary gland reveals normal hyperintense signal on the T1 Weighted images. The pituitary stalk is in the midline. The hypothalamus is unremarkable.

The suprasellar region and cavernous sinuses are unremarkable on either side.

T2 Weighted axial images of the brain do not reveal any significant feature of note.

Inflammatory changes are noted in the maxillary sinuses bilaterally.

IMPRESSION :

Normal unenhanced study of the sella and perisellar region.

If a pituitary microadenoma is strongly suspected a contrast enhanced scan may be worthwhile.
