Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzh N. Blmn / F / 75 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzednekar.
Examination : Intracranial and Neck M.R.A.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O syncopal attack on 00.00.00.

EXAMINATION :

The brain was screened with 5 mm thick T2 Weighted axial images.

Intracranial and neck MRA were performed with 3D TOF and 2D TOF sequences, respectively.

OBSERVATION :

There is no focal area of altered signal intensity within the brain parenchyma.

Both the lateral, third and the fourth ventricles are normal. The basal cisternal spaces are unremarkable. There is slight prominence of the cerebral cortical sulci and cerebellar folia bilaterally. There is no shift of the midline structures.

INTRACRANIAL MRA :

The petrous, cavernous and supraclinoid segments of the internal carotid arteries bilaterally show normal signal and calibre. The visualized anterior cerebral, middle cerebral, basilar, vertebral and posterior cerebral arteries also show normal signal, calibre and wall margins. No obvious aneurysm or vascular malformation is identified.








NECK MRA :

There is slight irregularity of the proximal left internal carotid artery at and just distal to the left common carotid bifurcation.

The left vertebral artery appears hypoplastic. Right common carotid bifurcation and right vertebral artery are unremarkable.

IMPRESSION :

1. No abnormality detected in the brain parenchyma per se.

2. Slight irregularity of the proximal left internal carotid artery as described may be atherosclerotic in etiology.
