Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzn Jalmn / M / 41 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzrges.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O altered sensorium with fever since 8 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 and Fast Scan (T2 *) coronal images.
5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images.
OBSERVATION :
There is a large ill-defined area in the left frontal lobe and the right frontal parafalcine region which is hypointense to gray matter on the T1 Weighted images. This is seen to turn heterogeneously hyperintense on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images. The rostrum, genu and the anterior portion of the body of the corpus callosum is also involved by the pathology. Few hyperintense areas are seen within this lesion on the T1 Weighted images which are hyperintense on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images and may represent extracellular methaemoglobin/ paramagnetic substances. There is mass effect with effacement of the adjacent sulci with compression upon the frontal horn of both the lateral ventricles. There is slight shift of the anterior falx to the left side.
There are small well-circumscribed areas in the pons anteriorly to the right and posteriorly to the left and the right middle cerebellar peduncle adjacent to the fourth ventricle. These are hyperintense on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images.
There is slight fullness of both the lateral ventricles. The third and the fourth ventricles are normal. The basal cisternal spaces are unremarkable. No obvious vascular anomaly is identified on this study.
IMPRESSION :
The MRI features are suggestive of :
1. Altered signal in the left frontal lobe and the right parafalcine frontal region and rostrum, genu and the anterior portion of the body of the corpus callosum.
2. Altered signal in the pons anteriorly to the right and posteriorly to the left and the right middle cerebellar peduncle adjacent to the fourth ventricle.
These are not specific for a single etiology.
These changes may be seen with :
a. Neoplasia.
b. Vascular insults.
c. Demyelinating lesions.
A contrast enhanced scan may be worthwhile.

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 also appears to be a spina bifida of the L5 vertebra.
There are areas of hypointensity on the T1 Weighted images which turn hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images involving the L3 and L4 vertebral bodies and the pedicles. Also seen is involvement of the L3-L4 intervertebral disc with erosion of the adjacent cortical endplates.
There is extension of this pathologic process into the anterior epidural space with resultant compression of the thecal sac at the L3 and L4 vertebral levels (more so on the left side at the L3 vertebral level). There is encroachment into the L3-L4 neural foramina bilaterally.
- 2 - scan-00000
There is extension into the pre and paravertebral soft tissues with involvement of the psoas muscles at the L3 and L4 levels.
The rest of the lumbar vertebral bodies and the remaining intervertebral discs reveal normal signal intensity. The facet joints are unremarkable.

1. Sacralization of the L5 vertebra. Please correlate with plain radiographs.

There is mild fullness of the third and both the lateral ventricles. There is mild prominence of the cerebral cortical sulci and cerebellar folia bilaterally.
The fourth ventricle is 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 :
The MRI features are suggestive of :
1. Altered signal within the periventricular white matter bilaterally, pons, corona radiata and lentiform nuclei bilaterally would represent ischemic changes.
