5 mm thick T1 Weighted, proton and T2 Weighted axial images.
5 mm thick FLAIR coronal images.
3 mm thick STIR coronal images through the optic nerves.
5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images.
OBSERVATION :
There are ill-defined hypointense areas in the left occipito-parietal region and in the right temporo-parieto-occipital region on the T1 Weighted images with involvement of the optic radiation bilaterally. These are seen to turn hyperintense on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images. There is loss of underlying white matter with focal prominence of the atrium of the left lateral ventricle. An area following CSF characteristics is observed in the right temporal lobe.
There are hyperintense areas in the periventricular deep white matter in the fronto-parietal regions bilaterally on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images. These are iso to hypointense to normal white matter on the T1 Weighted images.
There is thinning of the corpus callosum with involvement of the genu and splenium.
There is fullness of the ventricular system. There is prominence
of the cerebral cortical sulci and the 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.
The optic nerves show normal signal intensity on the STIR images.
Incidental note is made of bilateral maxillary sinusitis.
IMPRESSION :
Nearly symmetric white matter changes in the left occipito-parietal and right temporo-parieto-occipital regions and periventricular deep white matter in the fronto-parietal regions bilaterally also to some extent involving the grey matter with thinning of the corpus callosum, tissue loss and cerebral and cerebellar atrophy is not specific for a single etiology.
This probably represents a long standing demyelinating disorder or neurodegenerative disorder. Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis should be ruled out. Possibility of ischemic lesions seems less likely.

CLINICAL PROFILE : Known C/O adenocarcinoma of lung with metastasis to the brain. Gamma knife radiosurgery for the brain metastasis was performed in August 0000. For follow-up.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 coronal images.
After administration of contrast, the following parameters were used :5 mm thick T1 Weighted axial and coronal images with magnetization transfer.5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images.OBSERVATION :There is seen an approximately 4.2 x 3.5 x 3.2 cms sized well marginated, predominantly hyperintense lesion on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images in the left parieto-occipital-parafalcine region. This lesion appears hypointense on the T1 Weighted images. Faint hyperintense signal is noted within this lesion on the T1 Weighted images (? paramagnetic substances, ?? haemorrhage). This lesion enhances

There is perilesional edema with effacement of the sulcal spaces in the left parieto-occipital region and mild compression and anterior displacement of the occipital horn and atrium of the left lateral ventricle. Edema is also seen to encroach into the splenium of the corpus callosum on the left side and the posterior limb of the internal capsule.
A smaller, ring enhancing lesion is noted in the right parieto-occipital region, measuring approximately 1.2 cms in maximum transverse dimension. Mild perilesional edema is also noted around this lesion. Another very small, enhancing focus is noted in the right posterior temporo-occipital region. Small bright foci on FLAIR images are noted in the frontal white matter bilaterally. The right lateral, third and the fourth ventricles are normal. The basal cisternal spaces are unremarkable. There is no shift of the midline structures. No obvious vascular anomaly is identified on this study.There is no other focal area of abnormal enhancement in the brain parenchyma or the meninges.IMPRESSION :The MRI features suggest multiple metastasis in the brain parenchyma as described above. As compared to the previous MRI (study no:00002) dated 00.00.00, there is increase in the size of the lesions, especially in the left parieto-occipital parafalcine region and the surrounding edema.

1. Wedging of the L3 vertebral body with altered signal is most likely due to osteoporotic collapse with bone edema as described.
..3/.
- 3 - Scan-00008
The possibility of this being a pathological fracture cannot be ruled out though less likely.
2. Mild forward subluxation of the L4 over the L5 vertebra with a pseudo-posterior disc herniation at the L4-L5 level
and facetal arthropathy, right more than left with resultant lateral canal stenosis at this level.
3. A posterior and left far lateral disc herniation at the L3-L4 level.
4. A posterior and bilateral far lateral disc herniations with peridiscal osteophytes at the L2-L3 level.
5. Mild facetal arthropathy in the lumbar region.
6. Osteoporotic changes in the rest of the visualized vertebrae and bony pelvis.

Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzi Merclmn / F / 59 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzmpat.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Dorsal Spine.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O backache radiating to the RLE since 8-10 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.
5 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted axial images.
OBSERVATION :
Areas of hypointensity on the T1 Weighted images which turn heterogeneously hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images are seen to involve the D10 and D11 vertebral bodies and pedicles. The D10-D11 intervertebral disc is seen to be involved with erosion of the adjacent cortical endplates.
There is extension of this pathologic process into the anterior epidural space at the D10 and D11 vertebral levels with resultant cord compression. The cord over these levels shows a subtle hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted images and which may represent cord edema/ischemia/myelitis. Also seen is extension into the pre and paravertebral soft tissues over these levels. There is also extension into the D10-D11 neural foramina bilaterally with encasement of the foraminal D10 nerve roots.
A small well-defined area of hyperintensity on all the pulse sequences is seen within the postero-superior aspect of the D9 vertebral body and this would represent a hemangioma. The rest of the visualized dorsal vertebral bodies show areas of fatty replacement of normal marrow suggestive of osteoporosis.
A Schmorls node is seen in the superior surface of the D9 vertebral body.
..2/.
- 2 - Scan-00007A
The rest of the dorsal intervertebral discs show loss of water content.
The cervical spine was screened with 5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images and does not show any diagnostic feature of note.
IMPRESSION :
The MRI features are suggestive of a pathologic process involving the D10 and D11 vertebrae and the D10-D11 intervertebral disc with cord compression and cord edema/ischemia/myelitis as described. This most likely represents an infective process like tuberculosis.
The possibility of this being a neoplastic process is less likely.
