Name of the Patient : Abc Xyz Vlmn / F / 24 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzapadia.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Right Thigh.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O swelling over the right thigh since 4-5 years with pain since 3 months (on & off).
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I. of the right thigh was performed using the following parameters :
8 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted axial images.
5 mm thick Proton and STIR coronal images.
8 mm thick T1 Weighted and GRASS sagittal images.
OBSERVATION :
There is seen a fairly large, approximately 6.0 x 6.0 x 12.0 cms sized well-defined, intermediate signal intensity mass lesion on the T1 Weighted images in the posterior compartment of the middle third of the right thigh laterally, superficial to the biceps femoris muscles. This lesion appears significantly hyperintense on the T2 Weighted and STIR images. The proximal margin of this lesion is about 7.0 cms inferior to the right ischial tuberocity. The right biceps femoris muscles and the right semitendinosus and semimembranosus muscles are displaced medially by the lesion. The fat planes around this lesion are well-defined. There is no vascular encasement noted. No bone erosion or destruction is identified. The subcutaneous fat overlying this lesion shows normal signal.
- 2 - scan-00003
There is seen another, similar signal intensity lesion about 4.0 cms distal to the inferior margin of the above described lesion. This lesion is noted in the posterior compartment of the distal third of the right thigh, in the fat plane between the biceps femoris muscles and the semimembranosus muscle. This lesion measures approximately 3.0 x 5.0 cms. and is probably in continuity with the above described larger lesion by a thin communicating track (scans 106.8 & 107.8). The fat planes around the smaller lesion are also well-identified. This lesion is lateral and posterior to the popliteal vessels.
The visualized muscles in the right thigh show normal signal.
The visualized left thigh is also unremarkable.
IMPRESSION :
The MRI features are suggestive of two fairly well-defined mass lesions in the posterior compartment of the middle and distal third of the right thigh. Their signal characteristics, size and relations are described above. These lesions are most likely incommunication with each other by a thin track. These lesions are not specific for a single etiology. The possibility of a distended bursa, chronic abscess or a long standing hematoma may be considered as differential diagnosis. Remote possibility of a pseudo-aneurysm may be considered.
The possibility of a neoplasm seems less likely.

Name of the Patient : Abc Xyz A. Sukhlmn / M / 18 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzrekh.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Left Knee Joint.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O pain in the left knee joint with swelling since 15-20 days.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I of the distal left femur including the knee joint was performed using the following parameters :
8 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted axial images.
4 mm thick T1 Weighted and 5 mm thick GRASS sagittal images.
5 mm thick T1 Weighted and STIR coronal images.
OBSERVATION :
There is an ill-defined, hypointense signal on the T1 Weighted images involving the distal fourth of the shaft of the left femur including the distal femoral epiphysis. This lesion appears hyperintense on the T2 Weighted, STIR and the GRASS images. The superior margin of the lesion is about 14.0 cms from the distal margin of the left knee joint. There is a sharp zone of transition between the normal and the abnormal marrow signal.
There is evidence of periosteal elevation with an intermediate signal intensity soft tissue lesion on T1 Weighted images predominantly along the anterior, medial and the posterior margins of the distal left femur. This lesion also appears hyperintense on the T2 Weighted, STIR and GRASS images. Erosion of the cortex is noted in some places. The muscles around the distal left femur are displaced around the soft tissue lesion. The fat planes around the mass lesion and the visualized muscles are however well-identified. The left popliteal vessels are also displaced posteriorly. No vascular encasement is noted.

Probable involvement of the femoral attachment of the anterior cruciate ligament is noted. The posterior cruciate ligament is unremarkable. The posterior horn of the medial meniscus of the left knee joint shows internal signal suggesting meniscal degeneration. The lateral meniscus is unremarkable.
IMPRESSION :
Altered signal in the distal fourth of the left femur (involving approximately the distal 14.0 cms) with periosteal elevation and soft tissue extension as described is not specific for a single etiology. Osteogenic sarcoma is a likely possibility. An infective process cannot be entirely ruled out.

Name of the Patient : Abc Xyz lmn / M / 29 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzah.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Dorsal Spine.
(Post-contrast Study).
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O weakness with dragging of BLE since 3 years.
H/O fever prior to this.
EXAMINATION :
After administration of contrast the following parameters were used :
5 mm thick T2 Weighted axial images.
5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images with fat saturation.
OBSERVATION :
The dorsal spinal cord over the D9 to D11 vertebral levels still appears expansile. There is an ill-defined, hyperintense signal in the dorsal spinal cord extending over the D8 to D12 vertebral levels.
After administration of contrast there is faint patchy enhancement especially at its periphery over the D9 to D11 vertebral levels.
A suspicious nodular lesion is seen in the left lung field (scan 105.1, 105.2) which is seen to enhance after contrast administration and requires further evaluation.
The visualized dorsal vertebral bodies and intervertebral discs reveal normal signal intensity. The facet joints and the visualized pre and paravertebral soft tissues are unremarkable.
- 2 - scan-00006
There is no cord compression.
The conus medullaris terminates at the L1 level.
IMPRESSION :
After administration of contrast peripheral enhancement of the dorsal spinal cord over the D9 to D11 levels most likely represents demyelination.
The possibility of a neoplasm seems less likely. Lesion in the left lung requires further evaluation.

M.R.I of the cervico-dorsal spine was performed using the following parameters :
4 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted sagittal images.
8 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted axial images.
OBSERVATION :
There is a hyperintense area within the centre of the spinal cord extending over the cervico-medullary junction to the conus on the T2 Weighted images. This is iso to hypointense to cord on the T1 Weighted images. The CSF space is unremarkable.

Examination : M.R.I. of the Lumbo-sacral Spine.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O backache radiating to BLE since 00.00.00.
H/O fever since 1 month.
H/O fall in November 0000.
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 is replacement of the normal marrow of the L2, L3, L4 and L5 vertebral bodies by hypointense areas on the T1 Weighted images. These are seen to turn heterogeneously hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images. The pedicles of the L4 and L5 vertebrae are involved by the pathology. The L4-L5 intervertebral disc appears hyperintense suggestive of its involvement. There is slight pre and paravertebral soft tissue extension over the L4 to the L5 levels. The psoas muscles bilaterally show multiple hypointense areas on the T1 Weighted images which are seen to turn heterogeneously hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images. Anterior epidural extension is also noted extending over the D12 to the L2 levels. There is also encroachment into the neural foramen on the left side at the L4 level with encasement of the foraminal L4 nerve roots.
The CSF in the lumbar canal appears slightly hyperintense to normal on the T1 Weighted images.
Small posterior disc herniations are noted at the L2-L3, L4-L5 and L5-S1 levels.
The rest of the lower dorsal and lumbar intervertebral discs show loss of water content.
The rest of the lumbar vertebral bodies reveal normal signal intensity. The facet joints are unremarkable.
The conus medullaris terminates at the L1 level and the thecal sac terminates at the S1 level.
Note is made of a renal cyst in the left kidney.
The cervico-dorsal spine was screened with 4 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images and which shows degenerative changes more marked at the C5-C6 and C6-C7 levels with a tight canal at the C5-C6 level.
IMPRESSION :
The MRI features are suggestive of altered signal in the L2, L3, L4 and L5 vertebrae and the L4-L5 disc with extensions as described. This most probably is infective in etiology (like tuberculosis).
The possibility of a neoplastic process like a small cell tumor is less likely.
