Name of the Patient : Abc Xyz lmn / M / 46 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzrani.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O headaches and occasional giddiness since 2-3 days.
H/O right craniotomy on 00.00.00.

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 coronal images.

5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images.

OBSERVATION :

There are susceptibility artifacts in the region of the right maxillary antrum with post-operative changes. The medial wall of the right maxillary antrum and the right orbit (lower medial wall) is not well-identified, probably the result of surgery.

There are hypointense areas on the T1 Weighted images in the frontal lobes bilaterally. These are seen to turn hyperintense on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images. A cystic area is seen in the right frontal lobe on the T1 Weighted images which turns hyperintense on the proton and T2 Weighted images.

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.

Note is made of gross inflammatory changes within the paranasal sinuses.


IMPRESSION :

1. Post-operative status.

2. Areas of encephalomalacia in the frontal lobes bilaterally with cystic changes in the right frontal lobe.
