Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzlmn / M / 20 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzapadia.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Dorsal Spine.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

Known C/O Ewings sarcoma involving the pelvic bones.

EXAMINATION :

M.R.I of the dorsal spine was performed using the following parameters :

4 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted sagittal images.

5 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted axial images.

The lumbar spine was screened with 5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images.

OBSERVATION :

There is evidence of a space-occupying lesion within the posterior epidural space over the D3-D4 to the D5-D6 levels. This lesion is of intermediate signal characteristics on the T1 Weighted images and shows mixed signal characteristics on the T2 Weighted images. It is seen to communicate with a larger lesion in the posterior mediastinum on the left side and the prevertebral region (in the upper and mid dorsal region) via the neural foramina at the D4-D5 and D5-D6 levels. The trachea, esophagus and aorta are displaced anteriorly and to the right. Also seen is involvement of the pedicles and articular pillar of the D4 and D5 vertebrae on the left side as well as the D4 and D5 vertebral bodies and the left D5 transverse process.

The posterior epidural lesion is seen to compress and displace the spinal cord anteriorly and to the right over the D3-D4 to the D5-D6 levels. The cord over these levels shows a hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted images suggestive of cord edema/ischemia. There also appears to be involvement of the costo-vertebral joints and rib on the left side at the D4-D5 and D5-D6 levels.
..2/.






The left pedicle of the D12 vertebra is seen to be expansile and shows a hypointense signal on the T1 Weighted images.

The rest of the visualized dorsal vertebral bodies and intervertebral discs reveal normal signal intensity. The facet joints are unremarkable.

The conus medullaris terminates at the D12 level.

IMPRESSION :

In a known C/O Ewings sarcoma the MRI features are suggestive of secondary involvement of the D4 and D5 vertebrae with a posterior epidural component with cord compression and cord edema/ischemia over the D3-D4 to the D5-D6 levels. Also seen is a large mass lesion in the posterior mediastinum on the left side as described.

Examination : M.R.I. of the Sella & Perisellar Region.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O acromegaly with pituitary adenoma. Operated on 00.00.00. Received 30 sittings of radiotherapy.

EXAMINATION :

M.R.I of the sella and perisellar region was performed using the following parameters :

3 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted coronal images.

3 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images.

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

OBSERVATION :

There is still seen ballooning of the sella. The pituitary gland is seen along the floor of the sella and measures approximately 6.0 mms in height. An approximately 5.0 mms sized extra tissue is noted in the close relation to the optic chiasm and right optic nerve in the suprasellar cistern. The pituitary stalk is minimally pulled to the left. There is slight herniation of the suprasellar cistern and optic chiasm into the sella. The cavernous sinuses are unremarkable. The cavernous segment of the internal carotid arteries show normal flow void signal.

Inflammatory/post-operative changes are noted in the sphenoid sinus and nasal cavity.






A hyperintense signal is seen on the T1 Weighted images in the region just adjacent to the body of the right lateral ventricle and the head of the caudate nucleus on the right side. This is seen to remain hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images and may represent altered blood/paramagnetic substances.

Inflammatory changes are noted in the left middle ear cavity/tympanic membrane.

IMPRESSION :

1. Post-operative status.

2. The pituitary gland is seen along the floor of the sella which is ballooned.

3. Altered blood/paramagnetic substances in the region just adjacent to the body of the right lateral ventricle and the head of the caudate nucleus on the right side.

As compared to the previous MRI (study no:908) dated 00.00.00, there is now altered blood/paramagnetic substances in the region just adjacent to the body of the right lateral ventricle and the head of the caudate nucleus on the right side. There is no significant change in the sella/perisellar region. There is no significant change in the sella/perisellar region.

Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzah.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Lumbo-sacral Spine.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O backache radiating to the RLE since 1 month.

EXAMINATION :

M.R.I of the lumbo-sacral spine was performed using the following parameters :

5 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted sagittal images.

5 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted axial images.

OBSERVATION :

There appears to be sacralization of the L5 vertebra and it is as marked on the film. Please correlate with plain radiographs.

There is mild forward translation of the L5 vertebra over the S1 vertebra. The L5-S1 intervertebral disc shows loss of water content.

A posterior disc bulge with small peridiscal osteophytes is noted at the L5-S1 level. There is a posterior disc bulge at the L4-L5 level.

There appears to be spina bifida at the L5 level.

The lumbar vertebral bodies and the remaining intervertebral discs reveal normal signal intensity. The facet joints and the visualized pre and paravertebral soft tissues are unremarkable.

The conus medullaris terminates at the D12 level and the thecal sac terminates at the S1 level.
- 2 - Scan-00009


The antero-posterior dimensions of the lumbar canal at the level of the intervertebral discs are as follows :

17.0 mm at L1-L2
17.0 mm at L2-L3
16.0 mm at L3-L4
14.0 mm at L4-L5
13.0 mm at L5-S1.

The sacro-iliac joints were screened with 5 mm thick STIR coronal images. Hyperintense signal is seen within the bones adjacent to the right sacro-iliac joint with involvement of the joint per se.

IMPRESSION :

The MRI features are suggestive of :

1. Sacralization of the L5 vertebra and it is as marked on the film. Please correlate with plain radiographs.

2. Posterior disc bulges at the L4-L5 and L5-S1 levels
with small peridiscal osteophytes at the L5-S1 level.

3. Altered signal within the bones adjacent to the right sacro-iliac joint with involvement of the joint per se most likely represents sacro-ilitis. A dedicated study of the sacro-iliac joint may be worthwhile.
