Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzsh N. Slmn / M / 11 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzah.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O seizures since the age of 6 months.

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.

5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images.

OBSERVATION :

There is a small hypointense area in the right frontal deep white matter on the T1 Weighted images which is seen to turn hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images (se/m 104/14, 103/14, 102/14, 105/14, 106/14). This may represent partial volume with grey matter/perivascular space.

There is slight fullness of the left lateral ventricle as compared to the right and which may be a normal variant.

The hippocampus complex on either side is unremarkable.

The 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. Note is made of an empty sella.

Incidental note is made of right maxillary sinusitis, inflammatory changes in the ethmoidal air cells and enlarged adenoids.

IMPRESSION :

The MRI features are suggestive of an empty sella.

No other significant abnormality detected within the brain on this study.
