Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzarmlmn / F / 41 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzpta.
Examination : Intracranial and Neck M.R.A.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O headaches on and off and speech disturbances since 3 months.
Known diabetic.
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 no focal area of altered signal intensity within the brain parenchyma.
Both the lateral, third and the fourth ventricles are normal. The basal cisternal spaces are unremarkable. There is no shift of the midline structures.
Inflammatory changes are seen within the mastoid air cells, maxillary sinuses and sphenoid sinus.
INTRACRANIAL MRA :
The A1 segment of the right anterior cerebral artery is hypoplastic.
The petrous, cavernous and supraclinoid segments of the internal carotid arteries bilaterally show normal signal and calibre. The visualized left anterior cerebral, middle cerebral, basilar, vertebral and posterior cerebral arteries also show normal signal, calibre and wall margins. No obvious aneurysm or vascular malformation is identified.
NECK MRA :
The right vertebral artery is formed by two vessels arising from the right subclavian artery and uniting approximately 2.0 cms proximal to the right common carotid bifurcation.
The right common carotid artery and its extracranial branches appear normal.
There is flattening of the bulb of the left common carotid artery. A filling defect is noted along the medial wall of the distal left common carotid artery and the proximal left internal carotid artery. Mild stenosis of the origin of the left internal and external carotid arteries is noted.
IMPRESSION :
The MRA features are suggestive of :
1. An anomalous origin of the right vertebral artery as described.
2. Flattening of the bulb of the left common carotid artery with a probable atherosclerotic plaque along the medial wall of the distal left common carotid artery and the proximal left internal carotid artery with resultant mild stenosis of the vessels as described.
3. No focal parenchymal lesion is identified in the brain.
As compared to the previous MRI (study no:00003) dated 00.00.00, there is no significant change noted.

Name of the Patient : Abc XyzAlmn / F / 40 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzshi.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Cervical Spine.
CLINICAL PROFILE:
C/O neck pain radiating to BUE since 6 months.
On AKT for ? tuberculous spine.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I of the cervical spine was performed using the following parameters :
5 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted sagittal images.
5 mm thick T1 Weighted and Fast Scan (T2 *) axial images.
OBSERVATION :
The tip of the odontoid process appears deficient but smooth in outline. There is atlanto-axial dislocation with atlanto-dens interval measuring approximately 1.8 cms. There is resultant indentation and compression of the cervico-medullary junction which shows a hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted and Fast Scan (T2 *) images (isointense to normal cord on the T1 Weighted images) suggestive of cord edema/ischemia.
The left occipital condyle appears hypointense on all the pulse sequences suggesting sclerosis.
Small posterior disc protrusions with peridiscal osteophytes are noted at the C4-C5 and C5-C6 levels.
The cervical intervertebral discs show loss of water content.
The cervical vertebral bodies show normal signal intensity. The joints of Luschka and the visualized pre and paravertebral soft tissues are unremarkable.
Incidental note is made of enlarged lymphnodes in the deep cervical region.
IMPRESSION :
The MRI features are suggestive of :
1. Smooth surface of the tip of the odontoid process which could be post-traumatic/post-infective. Sclerosis of the left occipital condyle may suggest previous infection.
2. Atlanto-axial dislocation with atlanto-dens interval measuring approximately 1.8 cms.

Examination : M.R.I. of the Lumbo-sacral Spine.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O backache radiating to BLE (left more than right) with tingling since 7-8 months.
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 sacralization of the L5 vertebra and the L3 vertebral body is marked on the film. Please correlate with plain radiographs.
The L4, L5 and S1 vertebral bodies show an ill-defined hypointense signal on the T1 Weighted images which turns heterogeneously hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images. The L4 and L5 vertebral bodies and the L4-L5 disc space are reduced in height with irregularity of the cortical endplates adjacent to the L4-L5 intervertebral disc. The L4 and L5 pedicles are also involved.
There is an intermediate signal intensity soft tissue lesion on the T1 Weighted images in the prevertebral soft tissues, along the left psoas muscle extending from about the L3 vertebral level upto the left lateral pelvic wall, in the right paravertebral
Scan-00008
region in the pelvis and in the epidural space on the right (with compression of the thecal sac) over the L4 to S2 vertebral levels. This lesion appears hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images. The lesion along the left psoas muscle most likely represents a psoas abscess. Lesion along the right lateral pelvic wall, prevertebral region and in the epidural space may represent granulation tissue/abscess.
A small posterior disc bulge is noted at the L3-L4 level.
The facet joints at the L3-L4 and L4-L5 levels show mild hypertrophic degenerative changes.
The rest of the lumbar vertebral bodies reveal normal signal intensity.
The conus medullaris terminates at the L1 level and the thecal sac terminates at the S2 level.
The antero-posterior dimensions of the lumbar canal at the level of the intervertebral discs are as follows :

18.0 mm at L2-L3
17.0 mm at L3-L4
13.0 mm at L4-L5

Incidentally noted is a fairly large left sided cortical renal cyst.
Screening, T1 Weighted sagittal images of the cervico-dorsal region reveals a congenital block D3/D4 vertebra.

- 3 - Scan-00008
IMPRESSION :
1. Altered signal of the L4, L5 and S1 vertebral bodies and the L4-L5 intervertebral disc most likely represents osteitis with discitis, probably tuberculous in etiology. Soft tissue lesion along the left psoas muscle represents a psoas abscess. Soft tissue lesion along the right lateral pelvic wall, prevertebral region and in the right lateral epidural space may represent an abscess/granulation tissue.
The possibility of this lesion representing a neoplasm seems less likely.

Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain & I.A.M.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O tingling on the left side of the body since 00.00.00.
Known diabetic/hypertensive.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I of the brain and I.A.M. was performed using the following parameters :
5 mm thick T1 Weighted, proton and T2 Weighted axial images.
3 mm thick T1 Weighted coronal images.
MR cisternogram was obtained in the coronal plane.
5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images.
OBSERVATION :
There is seen an approximately 1.0 x 1.0 x 1.0 cms sized well-defined, intermediate signal intensity mass lesion on the T1 Weighted images in the left cerebello-pontine angle cistern. This lesion appears relatively hypointense on the T2 Weighted images and is seen to extend into the left internal auditory canal along the left seventh and eighth cranial nerve complex.
There are ill-defined, hyperintense areas on the proton and T2 Weighted images in the posterior parietal, paraventricular white matter bilaterally and in the subcortical and frontal deep white matter bilaterally. These lesions appear iso to hypointense to normal white matter on the T1 Weighted images.
A lacunar infarct is noted in the left lentiform nucleus.
There is mild dilatation of both the lateral and third ventricles. The fourth ventricle is normal. There is prominence of the cerebral cortical sulci, cerebellar folia and basal cisternal spaces bilaterally. There is no shift of the midline structures. No obvious vascular anomaly is identified on this study.
Inflammatory changes are noted in the sphenoid sinus.
IMPRESSION :
1. An approximately 1.0 x 1.0 x 1.0 cms sized mass lesion in the left cerebello-pontine angle cistern extending into the left internal auditory canal, most likely represents an acoustic neurinoma.
2. Altered signal in the posterior parietal, paraventricular white matter bilaterally and in the subcortical and frontal deep white matter bilaterally represent ischemic changes.
