Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzn Nalmn / M / 60 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzni.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Dorso-lumbar Spine.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
Alleged H/O fall 6 months ago with backache and pain radiating to BLE with paresthesias.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I of the dorso-lumbar spine was performed using the following parameters :
5 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted sagittal images.
6 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted axial images.
OBSERVATION :
There is central and anterior wedging of the D11, D12 and L1 vertebral bodies. These vertebrae show an ill-defined, hypointense signal on the T1 Weighted images which appears iso to slightly hyperintense to normal marrow on the T2 Weighted images. There is break in the cortical endplates adjacent to the D11-D12 and D12-L1 intervertebral discs. The D12-L1 intervertebral disc is herniated, centrally, into the body of L1 and shows a hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted images. Minimal retroplacement of the D11 and D12 vertebrae is noted in relation to the rest of the dorso-lumbar vertebrae. Slight involvement of the D11-D12 intervertebral disc is also noted. There is slight extension of this pathologic process into the pre and paravertebral soft tissues at the D11 and D12 vertebral levels.
Small posterior disc bulges are noted at the L3-L4 and L4-L5 levels and a postero-central protruded disc is noted at the L5-S1 level. The L5-S1 facet joints show mild degenerative changes.
The rest of the visualized dorso-lumbar vertebral bodies show preponderance of hematopoeitic marrow (hypointense on the T1 Weighted images). The remaining visualized dorso-lumbar intervertebral discs show slight loss of water content. The rest of the facet joints are unremarkable.
The visualized lower dorsal spinal cord shows normal signal intensity. There is no cord compression.
The conus medullaris terminates at the L1 level.
IMPRESSION :
Central and anterior wedging of the D11, D12 and L1 vertebrae with altered signal as described and herniation of the D12-L1 intervertebral disc into the body of L1, may be the sequelae of previous trauma. An infective lesion cannot be entirely excluded.
The possibility of a neoplastic etiology is less likely.
There is no cord compression or cord signal alteration.

Name of the Patient : Abc Xyza Sallmn / F / 32 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyz Sane.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O headaches since 15 days.
Past H/O basilar aneurysm (00.00.00).
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 :
There is thinning of the corpus callosum, more so of the posterior body and the splenium of the corpus callosum.
There is mild dilatation of both the lateral, third and the fourth ventricles. There is a hypointense signal, more pronounced on the T2 Weighted images in the posterior third ventricle, aqueduct and proximal fourth ventricle which may represent turbulent CSF flow.
There is no focal area of altered signal intensity in the brain parenchyma per se.
The basal cisternal spaces are unremarkable. There is no shift of the midline structures. No obvious vascular anomaly is identified on this study.
IMPRESSION :
1. Thinning of the corpus callosum, more so of the posterior body and the splenium of the corpus callosum is of ? etiology (? due to mild ventricular dilatation).
2. Mild dilatation of both the lateral, third and the fourth ventricles with altered flow signal as described may suggest
communicating hydrocephalus.
It is difficult to identify an aneurysm of the basilar artery on this study. If clinically indicated, an MR Angiogram would be worthwhile.

There are ill-defined, hyperintense areas on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images in the periventricular white matter bilaterally, bilateral corona radiata and centrum semiovale and in the pons. These appear iso to hypointense to normal white matter on the T1 Weighted images.
Lacunar infarcts (iso to hyperintense to CSF) are noted in the head of the left caudate nucleus and in the right lentiform nucleus.
There is mild dilatation of both the lateral, third and the fourth ventricles. There is prominence of the cerebral cortical sulci, cerebellar folia and the basal cisternal spaces bilaterally. There is no shift of the midline structures. No obvious vascular anomaly is identified on this study.
Soft tissue swelling is noted in the left periorbital region.
..2/.
IMPRESSION :
1. Altered signal in the left thalamus represents residual haemosiderin, most likely the sequelae of a previous bleed.
2. Altered signal in the periventricular white matter bilaterally, bilateral corona radiata and centrum semiovale and in the pons most likely represents ischemic changes.
3. Lacunar infarcts in the head of the left caudate nucleus and in the right lentiform nucleus.
4. Mild cerebral cortical and cerebellar atrophy.

Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzrankar.
Examination : M.R.I. of Both Hips.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O pain and swelling over the right gluteal region since 1 year.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I of both hips was performed using the following parameters :
8 mm thick T1 Weighted and STIR coronal images.
8 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted (with fat saturation) axial images.
8 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images.
OBSERVATION :
There is replacement of the normal marrow of the right ischial tuberosity and posterior column of the right acetabulum by hypointense areas on the T1 Weighted images. These are seen to turn heterogeneously hyperintense on the T2 Weighted and STIR images. There is a break in the cortex with involvement of the obturator internus muscle which shows a subtle hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted and STIR images. There is a large lesion within the fat planes inbetween the gluteus medius and maximus muscles which is hypointense to normal muscle on the T1 Weighted images and turns hyperintense on the T2 Weighted and STIR images. This may represent an abscess. This lesion is seen to extend upto the subcutaneous region laterally. This lesion is seen to extend upto the right iliac crest and to just below the lesser trochanter. The greater trochanter of theright femur is also involved. The gluteus maximus muscle also shows subtle hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted and STIR images suggestive of its involvement. The musculature around the right hip joint appears bulky.
The left hip joint is unremarkable. There are no abnormally enlarged lymph nodes or free fluid in the pelvis.
..2/.
Small (subcentimeter) soft tissue lesions are noted in the anterior abdominal wall on the left and in the right lateral abdominal wall. These are of ? etiology, ?? nerve sheath tumors (scan 103.5).
IMPRESSION :
The MRI features are suggestive of a large lesion which most likely represents an abscess in the right gluteal region with involvement of the right ischial tuberosity, posterior column of the right acetabulum and the greater trochanter of the right femur. This is most likely an infective process (? tuberculosis).
The possibility of this being a neoplastic process is less likely.
