The conus medullaris terminates at the L1 level.
Screening, T2 Weighted sagittal images of the cervico-dorsal region do not reveal any significant feature of note.
IMPRESSION :
1. Anterior wedging of the D6, D9 and D10 vertebral bodies without change in signal intensity, may be the sequelae of previous trauma.
2. Altered signal in the dorsal spinal cord, centrally, over the D7 to D9 vertebral levels most likely represents a syrinx.

Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzlmn / M / 47 yrs.
Examination : M.R.I. of Both Hips.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O pain in the right hip joint with limp.
H/O right metatarsal fracture 3 months back.
H/O left hip replacement 3 years back.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I of both hips was performed using the following parameters :
5 mm thick T1 Weighted and STIR coronal images.
5 mm thick T1 Weighted axial images.
5 mm thick Proton density sagittal images.
OBSERVATION :
There is slight loss of normal contour of the right femoral head which shows hyperintense areas on the T1 Weighted images in its antero-superior quadrant. These are seen to turn hypointense on the STIR images and follow fat signal intensity characteristics. Few hypointense areas are also noted on the T1 Weighted images which are seen to turn hyperintense on the T2 Weighted and FLAIR images. The double line sign is noted. There is slight effusion noted within the right hip joint.
The articular cartilage overlying the right femoral head appears normal. The acetabulum is unremarkable.
The musculature surrounding the right hip joint appears slightly atrophied.
- 2 - scan-00000
Susceptibility artifacts are noted in the left hip joint due to the previous surgery.
IMPRESSION :
The MRI features are suggestive of Class A and Class C avascular necrosis (Mitchells classification) of the right femoral head as described.
The patient is status post-operative for the left hip replacement.

Intracranial and neck MRA were performed with 3D TOF and 2D TOF sequences, respectively.
OBSERVATION :
BRAIN :
There are ill-defined, hypointense areas on the T1 Weighted images in the cerebellar hemispheres bilaterally, more pronounced on the right side, pons on the right and in the left temporo-parieto-occipital region. These lesions appear hyperintense on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images and most likely represent recent ischemic lesions.

Lacunar infarcts (isointense to hyperintense to CSF) are noted in the lentiform nuclei and thalami bilaterally, bilateral external capsular regions, right corona radiata and in the right centrum semiovale.
There are ill-defined, hyperintense areas on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images in the periventricular white matter bilaterally, bilateral centrum semiovale and in the subcortical white matter in the frontal regions bilaterally. These lesions also appear hypointense on the T1 Weighted images.
There is mild dilatation of both the lateral and third ventricles. There is slight prominence of the cerebral cortical sulci bilaterally.
The basal cisternal spaces are unremarkable. There is no shift of the midline structures.
INTRACRANIAL MRA :

There is still seen a subtle diffuse, hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted and FLAIR images in the subcortical and deep white matter in the right fronto-parietal region and to a much lesser extent in the left posterior parietal region. These lesions appear hypo to nearly isointense to normal white matter on the T1 Weighted images.
