3 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted coronal images.

5 mm thick T2 Weighted axial images through the brain.

OBSERVATION :

There is no area of focal altered signal intensity on the T2 Weighted axial images of the brain.

There is reduction in the volume of the left hippocampus with slight dilatation of the left temporal horn. No altered signal intensity is seen in the left hippocampus. These features can be seen with left mesial temporal sclerosis.

The right hippocampal complex on either side is unremarkable.

There is mild fullness of both the lateral and third ventricles. The fourth ventricle is normal. There is slight prominence of the cerebral cortical sulci bilaterally.
