Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzakant S. Kawalmn / M / 67 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzah.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O weakness of the LUE with mild headaches since 1 day from which patient has recovered.
Known diabetic.
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 and Fast Scan (T2 *) coronal images.
OBSERVATION :
There is gyral thickening with effacement of the adjacent sulci in the right temporo-parietal lobe. These gyri are hypointense on the T1 Weighted images and turn hyperintense on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images. This would represent an area of ischemia/infarction.
Smaller areas with similar signal characteristics are noted within the medial and inferior aspect of the right temporal lobe, right corona radiata and head of the right caudate nucleus.
There is fullness of the fourth ventricle and prominence of the cerebellar folia bilaterally. There is mild fullness of both the lateral ventricles and mild prominence of the Sylvian fissures and cerebral cortical sulci.
Note is made of an empty sella.
The third ventricle is 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 :
The MRI features are suggestive of :
1. An area of ischemia/infarction in the right temporo-parietal lobe as described.
2. Smaller areas of altered signal within the medial and inferior aspect of the right temporal lobe, right corona radiata and head of the right caudate nucleus and these are most likely ischemic in etiology.

Name of the Patient : Abc Xyz.lmn / F / 28 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzhah.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Right Thigh.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O pain in the right thigh since 1 year.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I. of the right thigh was performed using the following parameters:
8 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted axial images.
8 mm thick STIR and T2 Weighted coronal images.
4 mm thick Proton sagittal images.
OBSERVATION :
There is replacement of the normal marrow in the upper shaft of the right femur from the level of the lesser trochanter till the mid shaft level (approximately 11.0 cms in length) by hypointense areas on the T1 Weighted images. This is seen to turn hyperintense on the T2 Weighted and STIR images. There is a break in the cortex along the medial aspect (se/im 104/10) with extension of the pathologic process just below the periosteum with resultant elevation of the same. Subtle hyperintense signal seen in the adjacent soft tissue on the T2 Weighted images may represent edema. The rest of the right femur and the left femur is unremarkable.
IMPRESSION :
The MRI features are suggestive of altered signal in the upper shaft of the right femur from the level of the lesser trochanter till the mid shaft level (approximately 11.0 cms) with break in the cortex and smooth periosteal reaction as described.
This most likely represents sclerosing osteomyelitis of Garre.
The possibility of a neoplastic process appears less likely.

CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O loss of memory since 00.00.00.
C/O convulsions since 00.00.00.
Known diabetic and chronic alcoholic.
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 and Fast Scan (T2 *) coronal images.
OBSERVATION :
There are multiple, well-marginated, predominantly hyperintense lesions on the T1 Weighted images in the frontal and temporal lobes on the right and the temporo-parietal region on the left. These lesions appear relatively hypointense on the T2 Weighted images and bloom on the Fast Scan (T2 *) images. There is perilesional white matter hyperintense signal on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images which represents perilesional edema. Effacement of the sulcal spaces is noted in the right fronto-temporal region with resultant indentation on the frontal horn of the right lateral ventricle and mild bulge of the anterior interhemispheric fissure to the left.
There is slight prominence of the subdural space in the left fronto-temporo-parietal convexity. The fluid in this region is slightly hyperintense to CSF on all the pulse sequences. A predominantly more hyperintense signal on the T1 Weighted images is noted in the subdural space in the left temporal region.
Scan-00005
There is an ill-defined, hyperintense signal on the T1 Weighted images in the globus pallidus bilaterally, extending into the cerebral peduncles bilaterally. This signal appears isointense to the normal grey matter on the proton and T2 Weighted images.
The third and the fourth ventricles are normal. The basal cisternal spaces are unremarkable. No obvious vascular anomaly is identified on this study.
IMPRESSION :
1. Multiple altered signal intensity lesions in the right frontal and temporal lobes and in the left temporo-parietal region as described, follow the signal characteristics of subacute haemorrhage. These most likely represent multiple haemorrhagic contusions (known alcoholic). There is however, no definite h/o head trauma, presently. The possibility of amyloid angiopathy, multiple vascular malformations or multiple haemorrhagic metastasis seems less likely.
2. A small subdural collection (maximum width of 5.0 mms) in the left fronto-temporo-parietal region.
3. Altered signal in the globus pallidus bilaterally, extending into the cerebral peduncles may suggest a paramagnetic substance deposition. Hepato-cerebral syndrome should be ruled out, in the given clinical setting.
