Name of the Patient : Abc XyzSlmn / F / 40 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzbar.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O right facial palsy with gait imbalance since 4 days and severe backache since 10 days.
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.
MR cisternogram was obtained in the coronal plane.
OBSERVATION :
There is no focal area of altered signal intensity in the brain parenchyma.
There is prominence of the cerebellar folia bilaterally with fullness of the fourth ventricle. Also seen is mild prominence of the cerebral cortical sulci bilaterally.
The seventh and eighth cranial nerve complex on either side are unremarkable.
Both the lateral and third 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.
- 2 - Scan-00003/94
The cervico-dorsal spine was screened with the help of 4 mm thick T2 Weighted sagittal images and the lumbo-sacral spine with 5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images and does not reveal any diagnostic feature of note.
IMPRESSION :
The MRI features are suggestive of mild cerebellar atrophy.
