There is mild dilatation of both the lateral and the third ventricles. The fourth ventricle is normal. There is prominence of the cerebral cortical sulci and cerebellar folia bilaterally.
The basal cisternal spaces are unremarkable. There is no shift of the midline structures. No obvious vascular anomaly is identified on this study.

IMPRESSION :
1. Altered signal in the periventricular white matter bilaterally most likely represent ischemic changes.

Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyznghal.
Examination : Intracranial and Neck M.R.A.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O right sided hemiplegia since 1 year.
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 well marginated, hypointense lesion on the T1 Weighted images in the left fronto-temporo-parietal cortex and subcortical white matter. This lesion follows CSF signal on all the pulse sequences and represents an area of cystic encephalomalacia, most likely the sequelae of a previous vascular insult. Perilesional, ill-defined, hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted images may suggest gliotic changes. There is resultant dilatation of the left lateral ventricle as compared to the right. Atrophy of the left cerebral peduncle is also noted with a subtle hyperintense signal within it and in the anterior pons to the left (Wallerian degeneration).
Ill-defined, hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted images in the subcortical white matter in the right posterior parietal region may also represent ischemic lesions.
There is mild fullness of the right lateral ventricle. The third and the fourth ventricles are normal. The basal cisternal spaces are unremarkable. There is no shift of the midline structures.
Scan-00000
There is seen a hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted images within the lumen of the cavernous and supraclinoid segment of the left internal carotid artery in place of the normal flow-void signal.
INTRACRANIAL MRA :
The left vertebral artery is most likely hypoplastic and is not well identified intracranially.
There is non-visualization of the intracranial segment of the left internal carotid artery. Faint visualization of the left anterior, middle and posterior cerebral arteries is noted.
The petrous, cavernous and supraclinoid segments of the right internal carotid artery show normal signal and calibre. The visualized right anterior cerebral, right middle cerebral, basilar, right vertebral and right posterior cerebral arteries also show normal signal, calibre and wall margins. No obvious aneurysm or vascular malformation is identified.
NECK MRA :
The left vertebral artery is hypoplastic.
The left common carotid artery appears unremarkable. There is flattening of the left carotid bulb with slight concentric narrowing of the origin of the left external carotid artery at the carotid bifurcation.

- 2 - Scan-00009
The antero-posterior dimensions of the lumbar canal at the level of the intervertebral discs are as follows :
14.0 mm at L1-L2
16.0 mm at L2-L3
16.0 mm at L3-L4
12.0 mm at L4-L5
10.0 mm at L5-S1.
IMPRESSION :
The MRI features are suggestive of :
1. A postero-central and right paracentral disc extrusion at the L5-S1 level with inferior migration of the disc fragment which is seen to lie in the right lateral recess of the S1 vertebra, with mild indentation upon the right S1 nerve root.
2. A small, postero-central and bilateral far lateral disc herniations at the L4-L5 level.
3. Mild ligamentum flavum and facetal hypertrophy at the L5 and S1 levels.

Name of the Patient : Abc Xyz. Ralmn / F / 15 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc XyzShah.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Dorsal Spine.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O backache since 2-3 months with fever and loss of appetite and weight since then.
C/O weakness of BLE since 3 days.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I of the dorsal spine was performed using the following parameters :
5 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted sagittal images.
6 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted axial images.
OBSERVATION :
There is slight anterior wedging of the D8 vertebral body with forward translation of the D7 over the D8 vertebra with a resultant kyphus at that level.
There is replacement of the normal marrow of the D5, D6, D7, D8 and D9 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 these vertebrae and the posterior appendages of the D7 and D8 vertebrae are involved by the pathology. The superior and inferior cortical endplates of the D8 and D7 vertebrae are breached with involvement of the D7-D8 intervertebral disc. There is pre and paravertebral soft tissue extension over the D5 to D9 vertebral levels which is hypointense with a hyperintense periphery on the T1 Weighted images and turns hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images and would
represent abscess formation. The costo-vertebral and costo-transverse joints at the D7-D8 and D8-D9 levels are involved. There is slight extension into the posterior paraspinal soft tissues at the D7 and D9 vertebral levels. There is circumferential epidural extension of the soft tissue lesion over the D7 and D8 levels with severe compression of the spinal cord at the D7-D8 and D8 levels. The spinal cord at these levels shows a subtle hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted images (isointense to normal cord on the T1 Weighted images) suggestive of cord edema/ischemia/myelitis.
The aorta and IVC are displaced anteriorly by the pre and paravertebral soft tisse lesion.
The rest of the visualized dorsal vertebral bodies and remaining intervertebral discs reveal normal signal intensity. The facet joints are unremarkable.
The conus medullaris terminates at the D12-L1 level.
The cervico-dorsal and the dorso-lumbar spines were screened with 5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images and do not reveal any diagnostic feature of note.
IMPRESSION :
Altered signal of the D5, D6, D7, D8 and D9 vertebral bodies and the D7-D8 intervertebral disc suggests osteitis discitis, most likely tuberculous in etiology. Pre and paravertebral soft tissue lesion over the D5 to D9 vertebral levels may suggest an abscess formation. There is cord compression and cord signal alteration over the D7-D8 to D8 levels suggestive of cord edema/ischemia/myelitis.
The possibility of a round cell tumor seems less likely.
