Name of the Patient : Abc Xyz Slmn / M / 30 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyz. Desai.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Left Shoulder.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
H/O catch in May 0000, with pain in the upper back radiating to the LUE and numbness in the left thumb for 4-5 days. Pain relieved but discomfort in the left shoulder persists.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I of the left shoulder was performed using the following parameters :
4 mm thick T1 Weighted and GRASS axial images.
4 mm thick T2 Weighted sagittal images.
4 mm thick T1 Weighted, Proton and T2 Weighted coronal images.
OBSERVATION :
There is evidence of blunting of the anterior rim of the glenoid labrum with medial displacement of the avulsed labral fragment. The tendon of the subscapularis muscle appears slightly irregular and shows an ill-defined, hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted images. There is however, no obvious discontinuity of the subscapularis tendon or the musculo-tendinous junction. Minimal fluid is noted in the gleno-humeral joint. The biceps tendon is visualized in the bicipital groove.
There is an ill-defined, hyperintense signal on the GRASS images at the tip of the tendinous insertion of the supraspinatous muscle. This lesion is of intermediate signal on the T1 Weighted images. Minimal fluid is noted in the subacromion bursa.
The acromion process is of Type I morphology and is seen to be sloping slightly laterally.
The head of the left humerus shows normal contour and the head and upper shaft of the left humerus show normal signal intensity. The visualized scapula appears normal.
The articular cartilage of the head of the left humerus appears normal.
There is no bone erosion or destruction seen.
The acromio-clavicular joint is normal.
The visualized axilla is unremarkable.
IMPRESSION :
1. Blunting of the anterior glenoid labrum with an avulsed fragment suggest an anterior labral tear (Bankart lesion).
2. Slight irregularity of the subscapularis tendon with altered signal may suggest a partial tear/strain of the subscapularis tendon.
3. Altered signal at the tip of the tendinous insertion of the supraspinatous muscle may suggest a partial tear/tendinitis.
4. Minimal fluid in the gleno-humeral joint.

Name of the Patient : Abc Xyz Plmn / M / 28 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzngsarkar.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Pelvis.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O pain in the RLE since 3 months with decreased appetite and loss of weight by 10 kgs.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I of the pelvis was performed using the following parameters:
7 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted axial images.
5 mm thick T1 Weighted coronal images.
The dorsal and lumbar spines were screened with 5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images.
OBSERVATION :
There is an ill-defined, hypointense signal on the T1 Weighted images involving the right half of the sacrum including the right sacral ala and the iliac bones on either side adjacent to the sacro-iliac joints posteriorly. These lesions appear hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images. Similar signal intensity changes are noted in the left ischial tuberosity, head and neck of left femur, roof of the acetabulae on either side and probably the iliac crest, bilaterally.
There is seen a fairly large, intermediate signal intensity soft tissue component of the lesion in the presacral region to the right of the midline, extending into the right gluteal region through the sacro-sciatic notch. This lesion appears hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images. Slight extension into the posterior paraspinal muscles on the right and into the sacral canal is also noted.
The right gluteus maximus muscle shows an ill-defined hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted images which suggests its involvement. The right piriformis muscle also seems to be involved by the lesion. The rectum is displaced slightly anteriorly and to the left of the midline by the soft tissue component of the right sacro-iliac lesion. There are no abnormally enlarged pelvic lymph nodes identified on this study. There is no free fluid in the visualized pelvis.
Screening images of the dorsal and lumbar spine show an ill-defined hypointense signal on the T1 Weighted images involving the majority of the dorsal and lumbar vertebral bodies. Hyperintense signal on the T1 Weighted images in the D7, D9 and L4 vertebral bodies represent hemangioma with fat content.
IMPRESSION :
Altered signal in the right half of the sacrum including the right sacral ala and the iliac bones on either side adjacent to the sacro-iliac joints posteriorly, in the left ischial tuberosity, head and neck of left femur, roof of the acetabulae on either side and probably the iliac crest, bilaterally and in the dorsal and lumbar vertebral bodies as described is not specific for a single etiology.
The differential diagnosis would include :
1. Round cell tumors.
2. Multiple metastases.
3. Multifocal tuberculosis - seems less likely.
A soft tissue component of the lesion is noted in the presacral region on the right at the level of the right sacro-iliac joint extending into the gluteal region and the spinal canal as described.
No previous scans were available for comparison.

Examination : M.R.I. of the Dorsal Spine.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O backache radiating to the RLE with paresthesias 2 months ago.
Alleged H/O fall 2 months back.
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.
4 mm thick T1 Weighted coronal images.
OBSERVATION :
There is seen a fairly large, approximately 7.5 x 7.0 x 7.5 cms sized heterogeneous signal intensity mass lesion in the right paravertebral region extending over the D4 to D8 vertebral levels. This lesion is predominantly of intermediate signal on the T1 Weighted images and turns predominantly hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images. Focal hypointense areas are noted within this lesion on all the pulse sequences.
There is erosion of the right lateral margin, right pedicle and transverse process and the right lamina of the D6 vertebra with extension of the lesion into the epidural space on the right and posteriorly over the D5-D6 disc level to the D6-D7 disc level. There is resultant cord compression and displacement of the dorsal spinal cord anteriorly and to the left over these levels. The dorsal spinal cord at these levels shows a hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted and Fast Scan (T2 *) images suggesting cord edema/ischemia. The costo-vertebral, costo-transverse joints and the posterior segment of the right sixth rib are also not well identified. Slight extension of the mass lesion into the posterior paraspinal muscles on the right is also noted.
..2/.
The D6 vertebral body appears hypointense on the T1 Weighted images and hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images. Minimal forward translation of the D6 over D7 vertebra is noted. The D5-D6 and D6-D7 intervertebral discs are unremarkable.
Facetal hypertrophy is noted at the D9-D10 and D10-D11 levels with effacement of the posterior CSF space. Small postero-central protruded discs are noted at the D12-L1 and L1-L2 levels.
The rest of the visualized dorsal vertebral bodies show spotty fatty marrow changes. Some of the dorsal intervertebral discs show loss of water content. The remaining facet joints are unremarkable.
The conus medullaris terminates at the L1-L2 level.

1. A fairly large, approximately 7.5 x 7.0 x 7.5 cms sized heterogeneous signal intensity mass lesion in the right paravertebral region extending over the D4 to D8 vertebral levels, with extension into the spinal canal as described, most likely represents a nerve sheath tumor.
