Name of the Patient : Abc Xyz Hassan Muthlmn / F / 5 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzraf.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

Born of consanguineous marriage. Right sided seizures since 8 months. Difficulty in speech.

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.
3 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted coronal images.

OBSERVATION :

There is no focal area of abnormal signal intensity within the brain parenchyma. (Diffuse, hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted images in the posterior parietal periventricular white matter bilaterally, most likely represents areas of terminal myelination).

There is prominence of the cerebellar folia bilaterally with mild dilatation of the fourth ventricle. Mild fullness of both the lateral ventricles is noted. The third ventricle is normal.

The basal cisternal spaces are unremarkable. There is no shift of the midline structures. No obvious vascular anomaly is identified on this study.

The hippocampal complex is unremarkable on either side.

IMPRESSION :

Prominent cerebellar folia with mild dilatation of the fourth ventricle suggests cerebellar atrophy.
