Date : 00.00.00

Name of the Patient : Abc Xylmn / F / 30 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzndhi.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O seizures since childhood upto the age of 5 years.
Now C/O headaches with ? seizures since March 0000.

EXAMINATION :

M.R.I of the brain was performed using the following parameters :

5 mm thick T1 Weighted, proton and T2 Weighted axial images.

3 mm thick T1 Weighted, T2 Weighted and FLAIR coronal images.

OBSERVATION :

There is a CSF signal intensity lesion on all the pulse sequences in the right parieto-occipital lobe, which represents cystic changes. Minimal, perilesional hyperintense signal on the FLAIR images may represent gliotic changes.

The left hippocampus appears slightly smaller in size when compared to the right and shows a hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted images.

Both the 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.

IMPRESSION :

1. Altered signal in the right parieto-occipital lobe represents an area of cystic encephalomalacia.

2. Slight decrease in the volume of the left hippocampal complex with altered signal suggests left hippocampal sclerosis.

Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzollmn / M / 15 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzzzare.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

H/O febrile illness 1 month back with quadriparesis since 15 days.

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.
5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images.

OBSERVATION :

There are near symmetric, ill-defined, hyperintense areas on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images in the periventricular white matter bilaterally, bilateral capsular regions, centrum semiovale and thalami, in the brainstem and in the white matter in the cerebellar hemispheres bilaterally. These lesions appear hypointense to normal white matter on the T1 Weighted images. Few cystic (hypointense on the T1 Weighted and FLAIR images) areas are seen in the parietal lobes bilaterally.

Both the lateral and third ventricles are normal. Mild effacement of the fourth ventricle is noted. The basal cisternal spaces are unremarkable. There is no shift of the midline structures. No obvious vascular anomaly is identified on this study.

IMPRESSION :

Near symmetric, altered signal intensity in the cerebral and cerebellar hemispheres bilaterally and in the brainstem as described is not specific for a single etiology. Post-infective demyelination seems a likely possibility in the given clinical setting (leukodystrophies may have a similar appearance)

Date : 00.00.00

Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzhlmn / F / 20 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzinani.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O seizures since 5 years.

EXAMINATION :

M.R.I of the brain was performed using the following parameters :

5 mm thick T1 Weighted, proton and T2 Weighted axial images.
4 mm thick FLAIR coronal images.
3 mm thick T1 Weighted coronal images.

PATIENT REFUSED CONTRAST EXAMINATION.

OBSERVATION :

There is an ill-defined hyperintense signal on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images in the subcortical white matter in the left posterior parietal region. This signal appears iso to hypointense to normal white matter on the T1 Weighted images.

Both the 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.

IMPRESSION :

Altered signal in the subcortical white matter in the left posterior parietal region as described, most likely represents perilesional edema, probably around a granuloma. It is however difficult to identify a focal lesion in that region.

A contrast enhanced scan is essential.

The previous CT Scan was not available for review/comparison.

Name of the Patient : Abc Xyz lmn / F / 21 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzrani.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Cervico-dorsal Spine.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O TB of left TM joint. Craniotomy with excision of tumor (tuberculoma) in left occipital lobe done on 00.00.00.
For follow up. On AKT since May 0000.

EXAMINATION :

M.R.I of the cervico-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 :

There is slight anterior wedging of the D3 and D4 vertebral bodies. The D3-D4 intervertebral disc is reduced in height and shows loss of water content.

The D3 and D4 vertebral bodies on the right appear hypointense on the T1 Weighted images and hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images. There is an intermediate signal intensity soft tissue lesion on the T1 Weighted images in the right paravertebral region over the D3 to D5 vertebral levels. This lesion appears hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images and shows a well-marginated hypointense rim, peripherally. Erosion of the right lateral margin and right pedicle of D3 and D4 vertebrae is noted. Extension of soft tissue lesion into the right neural foramen at the D3-D4 and D4-D5 levels and in the anterior right lateral epidural space at D3 and D4 levels is noted. There is
Scan-00003


also involvement of the D3 and D4 ribs proximally and the respective costo-vertebral joints on the right side. There is however no significant cord compression. The dorsal spinal cord over the D2 to D4 vertebral levels shows an ill-defined hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted images which suggests cord edema/ischemia.

A similar smaller lesion is noted in the left paravertebral region at the D2 and D3 vertebral levels. The left half of the D3 and D4 vertebral bodies show spotty fatty marrow changes which may suggests partial healing. The posterior elements of the D4 and D5 vertebrae seems to be involved by the lesion with subtle hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted images in the right half of the D5 vertebral body.

A congenital block C5/C6 vertebra is noted.

The rest of the visualized cervico-dorsal vertebral bodies and the remaining intervertebral discs reveal normal signal intensity. The facet joints are unremarkable.

IMPRESSION :

Altered signal of the D3 and D4 vertebral bodies as described most likely represents osteitis, probably tuberculous osteitis. Right paravertebral soft tissue lesion at the D3 and D4 vertebral levels may represent granulation tissue, which is seen to extend into the anterior and right lateral epidural space. Altered signal in the dorsal spinal cord over the D2 to D4 vertebral levels suggests cord edema/ischemia.

Altered signal in the D5 vertebra and the posterior elements of the D4 and D5 may also represent osteitis.

The possibility of the neoplasm is less likely.

Previous investigations were unavailable for comparison.

Name of the Patient : Abc Xyz lmn / F / 21 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzrani.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O TB of left TM joint. Craniotomy with excision of tuberculoma in left occipital lobe done on 00.00.00.
For follow up. On AKT since May 0000.

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.

OBSERVATION :

There is evidence of a left parieto-occipital craniotomy. Susceptibility artifacts are noted in that region.

There is volume loss in the left occipital lobe. There is an ill-defined, hypointense signal on the T1 Weighted images in the left parieto-occipital region which appears hyperintense on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images. These changes may represent gliotic/encephalomalacic changes, the sequelae of previous surgery. Minimal fullness of the occipital horn of the left lateral ventricle is noted.

Both the lateral, third and the fourth ventricles are otherwise unremarkable. 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. Post-operative status.

2. Volume loss in the left occipital lobe with altered signal
suggests gliotic/encephalomalacic changes, the sequelae of previous surgery.

As compared to the previous MRI dated 00.00.00 (scan no. 733), the previously identified lesion in the occipital lobe is not identified on the present study. The lesion in the clivus and in the left frontal lobe are not well identified on this scan and show resolution.

If clinically indicated a contrast enhanced scan may be worthwhile.
