Name of the Patient : Abc Xyz Plmn / M / 32 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzah.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O giddiness and vomiting for 2-3 days on 00.00.00 with gait imbalance and now C/O heaviness of head with pain.

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 :

Hypointense areas (slightly hyperintense to CSF) are seen in the left lentiform nucleus and in the body of the caudate nucleus on the left side on the T1 Weighted images. These are seen to turn hyperintense on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images and would represent lacunar infarcts.

Both the lateral, third and the fourth ventricles are normal. There is slight prominence of the cerebral cortical sulcal spaces in the high parietal regions and cerebellar folia bilaterally. The basal cisternal spaces are unremarkable. There is no shift of the midline structures. No obvious vascular anomaly is identified on this study.

IMPRESSION :

Lacunar infarcts in the left lentiform nucleus and in the body of the caudate nucleus on the left side.
