Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzg lmn / M / 52 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzhta.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O increased blood pressure with tremors on the left side of body on the morning of 00.00.00.
No complaints at present.

EXAMINATION :

M.R.I of the brain was performed using the following parameters :

5 mm thick T1 Weighted, proton and T2 Weighted axial images.
5 mm thick FLAIR and Fast Scan (T2 *) coronal images.

OBSERVATION :

There are foci of hyperintensity on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images within the white matter in the frontal lobes bilaterally and right periatrial white matter. These are iso to hypointense to normal white matter on the T1 Weighted images and are most likely ischemic in etiology.

There is mild prominence of the cerebellar folia bilaterally.

Focal hypointensities on the Fast Scan (T2 *) images within the globus pallidus bilaterally may represent calcium.

Note is made of an empty sella.

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.

Incidental note is made of pansinusitis.

IMPRESSION :

The MRI features are suggestive of foci of altered signal intensity within the white matter in the frontal lobes bilaterally and right periatrial white matter and these are most likely ischemic in etiology.
