CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O numbness in BLE (right more than left) with difficulty in walking since 6 months.
Now C/O progressive weakness of BLE.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I of the dorso-lumbar spine was performed using the following parameters :
4 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted sagittal images.
5 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted axial images.
OBSERVATION :
There is reduction in height of the D10-D11, D11-D12 and D12-L1 intervertebral discs and loss of water content of the visualized dorso-lumbar intervertebral discs.
There is a postero-central disc herniation with posterior peridiscal osteophytes at the D10-D11 level, more to the right of the midline, with cord compression. The dorsal spinal cord at this level shows a hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted images suggesting cord edema/ischemia.
Small, postero-central protruded discs with peridiscal osteophytes are also noted at the D9-D10, D11-D12 and D12-L1 levels. Slight facetal hypertrophy is noted at the D9-D10 and D10-D11 levels.
The D11 and D12 vertebral bodies are slightly wedged anteriorly, without change in signal intensity.
The visualized dorso-lumbar vertebral bodies reveal normal signal intensity. The rest of the facet joints and the visualized pre and paravertebral soft tissues are unremarkable.
The conus medullaris terminates at the L1 level.
Screening, T2 Weighted sagittal images of the upper dorsal spine do not reveal any significant feature of note.
A small postero-central protruded disc is also noted at the L4-L5 level.
After administration of contrast, there is no area of abnormal enhancement within the spinal canal or along the meninges.
IMPRESSION :

OBSERVATION :
There is loss of water content of the cervical intervertebral discs.
There is seen a well marginated approximately 1.4 x 1.0 x 3.0 cms sized intradural-extramedullary mass lesion in the cervical spinal canal, extending over the C5 and C6 vertebral levels, anterior to the spinal cord and to the
right of the midline. This lesion is relatively hypointense when compared to the normal cord on the T1 Weighted images and appears hyperintense on the T2 Weighted and Fast Scan (T2 *) images with focal hypointense signal within. There is resultant cord compression and cord displacement posteriorly and to the left at these levels. It is difficult to assess the cord signal at the C5 and C6 vertebral levels.
After administration of contrast, there is fairly homogeneous enhancement of the lesion at the C5 and C6 vertebral levels with enhancement of the nerve roots on the right side at the C4-C5 level.
Posterior disc bulges with posterior peridiscal osteophytes are noted at the C4-C5, C5-C6 and C6-C7 levels.

4 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted coronal images.
4 mm thick GRASS axial images.
OBSERVATION :
Menisci
There is a hyperintense signal in the posterior horn of the medial meniscus reaching upto the inferior articular surface and represents Grade III meniscal signal (meniscal tear).
Linear hyperintense signal is seen in the anterior horn of the medial meniscus and the anterior and posterior horns of the lateral meniscus not reaching upto the articular surface and would represent Grade II meniscal signal (meniscal degeneration).

The Hoffas fat pad is normal.
Articular cartilage and bones :
The articular cartilage overlying the patella, tibia and femur appears normal.
Effusion is seen in the suprapatellar bursa and in the right knee joint.
IMPRESSION :

Examination : M.R.I. of the Sella & Perisellar Region.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
H/O transphenoidal subtotal excision of haemorrhagic non-malignant pituitary macroadenoma done on 00.00.00.
For follow-up.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I of the sella and perisellar region was performed using the following parameters :
3 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted coronal images.
3 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images.
The brain was screened with 5 mm thick T2 Weighted axial images.
OBSERVATION :
The pituitary gland appears bulky and measures approximately 13.0 x 15.0 x 8.0 mms. A hyperintense signal is seen in the inferior aspect of the pituitary region. This is seen to turn hypointense on the T2 Weighted images and may represent a fat graft, the result of previous surgery. The superior portion of the lesion is hypointense on the T1 weighted images and turns heterogenously hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images. The optic chiasm is seen separate from this lesion. The posterior pituitary gland reveals normal hyperintense signal on the T1 Weighted images. The pituitary stalk is slightly deviated to the right side. The hypothalamus is unremarkable.
T2 Weighted axial images of the brain do not reveal any significant feature of note. Incidental note is made of a left maxillary polyp.
IMPRESSION :The MRI features are suggestive of :1. Post-operative status.2. There is no significant decrease in the size of the pituitary macroadenoma as compared to the previous MRI (study no:0000) dated 00.00.00.

Examination : M.R.I. of the Dorsal Spine.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O weakness with dragging of BLE since 3 years.
H/O fever prior to this.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I of the dorsal spine was performed using the following parameters :
4 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted sagittal images.
10 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted axial images.
The lumbar and cervical spines were screened with 5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images and 4 mm thick T2 Weighted sagittal images, respectively.
OBSERVATION :
The dorsal spinal cord over the D9 to D11 vertebral levels appears expansile. There is an ill-defined, hyperintense signal in the dorsal spinal cord extending over the D8 to D12 vertebral levels. This lesion appears hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images. The lesion is located more so, centrally and posteriorly within the dorsal spinal cord. Slight effacement of the CSF space over the extent of the lesion is noted.
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.
There is no cord compression.
The conus medullaris terminates at the L1 level.
Screening images of the cervical and lumbar spines do not reveal any significant feature of note.
IMPRESSION :
Altered signal of the dorsal spinal cord over the D8 to D12 levels with slight expansion of the cord over the D9 to D11 levels is not specific for a single etiology. A demyelinating lesion or a granuloma is a likely possibility. The possibility of a neoplasm seems less likely.
A contrast enhanced scan would be worthwhile for evaluating the underlying pathology.
