Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzlmn / F / 17 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzah.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Hippocampal Region.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O seizures since the age of 2 months.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I of the hippocampal region was performed, as requested using the following parameters :
5 mm thick T1 Weighted and FLAIR coronal images.
3 mm thick T2 Weighted coronal images.
5 mm thick T2 Weighted axial images through the brain.
OBSERVATION :
There is a large hypointense area in the right posterior parietal region on the T1 Weighted images. This is seen to follow CSF signal characteristics on the T2 Weighted images. Hyperintense areas are noted at the periphery of this lesion better appreciated on the FLAIR images which would represent areas of gliosis. There is dilatation of the atrium and posterior body of the right lateral ventricle. This lesion would represent an area of cystic encephalomalacia.
Similar smaller areas are seen in the posterior cerebellar hemispheres bilaterally.
The hippocampal complex is unremarkable on either side.
The left lateral, third and the fourth ventricles are normal. 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. Cystic encephalomalacia in the right posterior parietal region.
2. Area of gliosis bilaterally in the cerebellar, posteriorly.

FEW IMAGES SHOW PATIENT MOTION INSPITE OF SEDATION.
OBSERVATION :
There is an ill-defined, hypointense signal on the T1 Weighted images involving the D10, D12, L2, L3, L5 and S1 vertebral bodies.

Resultant mild cord compression and displacement of the lower dorsal spinal cord anterior and to the right of the midline is noted. The visualized lower dorsal spinal cord shows a hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted images, suggesting cord edema/ischemia.

5 mm thick T1 Weighted, proton and T2 Weighted axial images.
3 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted coronal images.
5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images.
OBSERVATION :
There is seen an ill-marginated, hypointense lesion on the T1 Weighted images in the cortex and subcortical white matter in the left posterior parietal region.

Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzsh lmn / M / 28 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzankhla.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
H/O low grade glioma in the left frontal region for which craniotomy was done on 00.00.00.
C/O swelling over the face and headaches since 2-3 days.
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 a left fronto-parietal craniotomy. A small, epidural hemorrhagic collection is noted deep to the craniotomy site, the sequelae of previous surgery. A small, left frontal subdural collection is also noted. There is also a subgaleal collection in the left fronto-temporo-parietal region extending slightly to the right of the midline. The dura at the site of surgery is not well-defined in continuity.
There is seen an approximately 2.0 x 2.8 x 2.2 cms sized well marginated, predominantly intermediate signal intensity lesion on the T1 Weighted images in the left deep fronto-parietal, parafalcine region. This lesion appears hyperintense on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images. Focal, CSF signal on all the pulse sequences is noted within this lesion, anteriorly. There is a peripheral hyperintense rim on the T1 Weighted images which appears relatively hypointense on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images. This lesion most likely is the sequelae of previous surgery, and may represent a post-operative cavity with inflammatory changes within.
Around the above described lesion there is seen a band of tissue, approximately 1.0 cm in width, predominantly along its anterior, superior and inferior margins. This lesion appears hypointense to normal white matter on the T1 Weighted images and is hyperintense on the T2 Weighted and FLAIR images. Resultant indentation and inferior displacement of the body of the left lateral ventricle is noted with mild bulge of the midline to the right. The involvement of the body of the corpus callosum cannot be entirely ruled out. The track of previous surgery is seen to extend from the mass lesion upto the dura at the operative site. The dura is not well-defined in continuity.
There is mild fullness of the left lateral ventricle as compared to the right. The third and fourth ventricles are normal. The basal cisternal spaces are unremarkable. No obvious vascular anomaly is identified on this study.
Fluid level is noted in the sphenoid sinus.
IMPRESSION :
