Name of the Patient : Abc Xylmn / F / 29 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzah.
Examination : M.R.I. - Dorsal Spine (Post-contrast Study)

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O tingling in the LLE since 1 month.

EXAMINATION :

The dorsal spine was screened with 4 mm thick T2 Weighted sagittal images.

After administration of contrast the following parameters were used :

7 mm thick T1 Weighted axial (with fat saturation) images.

4 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal (with fat saturation) images.

The brain was screened with 5 mm thick T1 Weighted axial images with magnetization transfer.

OBSERVATION :

The T2 Weighted sagittal images of the dorsal spine reveal hyperintense signal within the dorsal spine cord at the D5 vertebral level and over the D9 and D10 vertebral levels. There is decrease in the extent of the signal intensity change at the D9 and D10 vertebral levels when compared to previous MRI dated 00.00.00. There is also a decrease in the focal increase in size of the dorsal cord on the previous study.

After administration of contrast, there is no focal area of abnormal enhancement in the visualized dorsal and cervical spinal cord or the brain parenchyma on this study.

The possibility of demyelinating lesions should be considered in the differential diagnosis.
