Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzo V. Tlmn / M / 46 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzrekh.
Examination : M.R.I. of Both Hips.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O pain in the left hip joint.
H/O steroids intake for 10 days.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I of both hips was performed using the following parameters :
5 mm thick T1 Weighted and STIR coronal images.
5 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted axial images.
5 mm thick Proton density sagittal images.
OBSERVATION :
There is loss of normal contour of the left femoral head.
There is an ill-defined, predominantly hypointense intermediate signal intensity lesion on the T1 Weighted images in the anterior and superior quadrants of the head of the left femur. This lesion appears predominantly hyperintense on the T2 Weighted and STIR images. This lesion is well demarcated from the neck of the left femur and represents Class B/C avascular necrosis of the femoral head. The double line sign is well-identified in the left femoral head. The left femoral neck shows an ill-defined hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted and STIR images suggesting bone edema. The articular cartilage overlying the left femoral head is not well-defined. The left acetabulum is unremarkable. There is a small left hip joint effusion. Slight decrease in bulk of the muscles around the left hip joint is noted, when compared to the right.
The visualized right hip joint is unremarkable except for minimal fluid in the right hip joint.

IMPRESSION :
The MRI featrures are suggestive of Class B/C avascular necrosis of the left femoral head.

The antero-posterior dimensions of the lumbar canal at the level of the intervertebral discs are as follows :
18.0 mm at L1-L2
19.0 mm at L2-L3
16.0 mm at L3-L4

The cervico-dorsal spine was screened with 5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images
which shows slight degenerative changes in the cervical region and Schmorls nodes at the D6-D7 and D7-D8 levels. A hemangioma is seen in the D7 vertebral body.
IMPRESSION :
The MRI features are suggestive of altered signal of the L1, L3, L4, L5, S1, S2 and S4 vertebral bodies with extensions as described. There is also involvement of the
right pedicle and the transverse process of the D5 vertebra, both the sacral ala and the iliac bones and left gluteal muscle by the pathology. These most likely represent metastasis.
In view of the enlarged prostate, a prostatic carcinoma with metastasis may be considered as a likely possibility.

Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzrankar.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Cervico-dorsal Spine.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O radicular pain in the LUE and LLE with paresthesias since 1 month. Also C/O loss of weight and appetite.
H/O pulmonary kochs (detected 2 days back).
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 Fast Scan (T2 *) axial images.
IMAGES SHOW PATIENT MOTION.
OBSERVATION :
There is replacement of normal marrow of the D1 vertebral body by hypointense areas on the T1 Weighted images. The left pedicle also appears to be involved by the pathology. These are seen to turn heterogeneously hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images. There is slight anterior and left lateral epidural extension with encroachment into the D1-D2 neural foramen on the left side. Mild left paravertebral soft tissue lesion is noted.
Bilateral pleural effusions are seen, left more than right .
There is slight forward subluxation of the D2 over the D3 vertebrae. Posterior disc bulges are seen at the D2-D3 and D3-D4 levels.
The cervico-dorsal intervertebral discs show loss of water content.
Diffuse fatty changes are noted in the rest of the visualized dorsal vertebral bodies.
A hemangioma with fatty content is seen in the D5 vertebral body.

The visualized cervico-dorsal spinal cord reveals normal signal intensity.
IMPRESSION :
The MRI features are suggestive of altered signal of the D1 vertebral body with involvement of the left pedicle and extensions as described is most probably due to a granulomatous infective process like tuberculosis.
The possibility of a neoplastic process like a small cell tumor or metastasis cannot be ruled out.
