Name of the Patient : Abc XyzKhalmn / F / 32 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzni.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Left Elbow.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
H/O accidental injury to the left elbow 1 year back with skin grafting.
Now C/O severe pain at the left elbow.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I of the left elbow was performed using the following parameters :
5 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted (with fat saturation) axial images.
4 mm thick T1 Weighted and STIR coronal images.
4 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted (with fat saturation) sagittal images.
OBSERVATION :
There is evidence of susceptibility artifacts in the posterior soft tissues of the left elbow joint. It is hence, difficult to completely evaluate the olecranon process.
The bones of the left elbow joint show normal alignment and signal characteristics. No obvious fractures/bone erosion or destruction is noted. The muscles around the left elbow joint show normal signal characteristics. The fat planes are well-identified. No obvious nerve entrapment is noted. No obvious vascular anomaly is identified on this study.
Minimal fluid is noted in the radio-humeral joint.
IMPRESSION :
Post-operative (skin grafting) status, with susceptibility artifacts in the posterior soft tissues of the left elbow joint.
No other significant abnormality is detected on this study.
No previous radiographs were available for review/comparison.
