Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzlam lmn / M / 19 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzzzare.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Dorsal Spine.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O backache with progressive weakness of BLE since 1 month.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I of the dorsal spine was performed using the following parameters :
4 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted sagittal images.
4 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted axial images.
The cervical spine was screened with 4 mm thick T2 Weighted sagittal images and the lumbo-sacral spine was screened with 5 mm thick T1 Weighted images.
OBSERVATION :
Areas of hypointensity on the T1 Weighted images which turn mildly hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images are seen to involve most of the dorsal vertebral bodies and their appendages.
There is extension of this pathologic process into the pre and paravertebral soft tissues and the epidural space at the D5 and D6 levels with resultant encasement of the cord. The D5-D6 intervertebral disc is seen to be involved by the pathologic process. Soft tissue lesion is also noted within the posterior epidural space at the D7 and D8 levels.
The spinal cord over the D5 to D8 vertebral levels shows a hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted images and this may represent cord edema/ischemia/myelitis.
Soft tissue extension is also noted in the epidural space and the pre and paravertebral soft tissues at the D11 and D12 levels.
..2/.
There appear to be enlarged mediastinal lymphnodes.
The visualized lumbar and sacral vertebrae appear hypointense on the T1 Weighted images. There also appear to be enlarged lymphnodes in the visualized lumbar prevertebral space.
The conus medullaris terminates at the L1 level.
IMPRESSION :
The MRI features are suggestive of a pathologic process involving most of the dorsal and lumbo-sacral vertebrae with soft tissue extensions and cord compression and cord signal alteration suggestive of cord edema/ischemia/myelitis over the D5 to the D8 vertebral levels.
The possibilities to be considered are,
1. An infective process like tuberculosis.
2. Neoplastic processes like secondaries or small cell tumors.

Name of the Patient : Abc Xyznt lmn / M / 15 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzchale.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
H/O fever with chills 12 days back with bladder involvement since 4 days with weakness in BUE and BLE and altered sensorium since 1 day.
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 subtle hyperintense signal on the proton and T2 Weighted images in the lower medulla and the cervico-medullary junction. This is isointense to normal white matter on the T1 Weighted images.
Both the 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.
The cervical and dorsal spines were screened with 4 mm thick T2 Weighted sagittal images, which show hyperintense signal within the centre of the spinal cord over the cervico-medullary junction upto the conus.
IMPRESSION :
The MRI features are suggestive of altered signal in the lower medulla and the cervico-medullary junction upto the conus medullaris. In the given clinical setting of fever this most likely represents myelitis.
The other possibilities to be considered are demyelination or ischemia/infarction.

CLINICAL PROFILE :
H/O fall with injury to head in May 0000 with multiple cerebral contusions and small subdural hematomas. C/O headaches.
For follow-up.
EXAMINATION :
The brain was screened with 5 mm thick T2 Weighted axial images.
Intracranial and neck MRA were performed with 3D TOF and 2D TOF sequences, respectively.
OBSERVATION :
There is a small well-defined hyperintense lesion which measures 0.4 x 0.6 cms. in the left inferior frontal lobe on the T2 Weighted images. This has a hypointense periphery. It is hyperintense on the T1 Weighted images and would represent extracellular methaemoglobin. There are surrounding hyperintense areas on the T2 Weighted images which are hypointense to the normal white matter on the T1 Weighted images and would represent areas of gliosis.
There is mild fullness of both the lateral and the third ventricles. The fourth ventricle is normal. The basal cisternal spaces are unremarkable. There is no shift of the midline structures.
INTRACRANIAL MRA :
The petrous, cavernous and supraclinoid segments of the internal carotid arteries bilaterally show normal signal and calibre. The visualized anterior cerebral, middle cerebral, basilar, vertebral and posterior cerebral arteries also show normal signal, calibre and wall margins. No obvious aneurysm or vascular malformation is identified.
NECK MRA :
The common carotid arteries and their extracranial branches appear normal bilaterally. There are no vessel wall irregularities or stenosis of the vessels noted.
IMPRESSION :
The MRI features are suggestive of resolving hematoma/ haemorrhagic contusion in the left
inferior frontal lobe.
No significant abnormality is detected on the intracranial and neck MRA on this study.
As compared to the previous MRI dated 00.00.00 there is resolution of the previous subdural hematomas and the haemorrhagic contusion in the right temporal region.
