Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzi C. Golmn / F / 35 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzewal.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O fever, headaches, giddiness with nausea and discharge from the left ear since 1 1/2 months.
C/O numbness over the left side of face, head and neck with decreased hearing, inability to swallow solids and loss of taste since 10-12 days.
C/O inability to see clearly from the left side since 10-12 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 T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted coronal images.
5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images.
OBSERVATION :
There is an intermediate signal intensity mass lesion in the left parapharyngeal space on the T1 Weighted images. This lesion is relatively hypointense on the T2 Weighted images. This is seen to involve the medial and lateral pterygoid muscles as well as the temporalis muscle medially. There is destruction of the pterygoid plate with bulging into the pharyngeal space on the left lateral aspect. Posteriorly, there is compression upon the carotid space and displacement of the carotid sheaths postero-laterally. However, the carotid artery shows normal flow void signal on all the pulse sequences. Medially, there is mild encroachment into the retropharyngeal space. Postero-superiorly there is extension into the left infratemporal fossa with erosion of the temporal bone and intracranial extension (extradural collection) which is seen to compress upon the left temporal lobe. There is mild involvement of the clivus on the left side with slight encroachment into the inferior aspect of the left cavernous sinus. Involvement of the hard palate on the left posteriorly, is also noted. A small hypointense area is seen on the T1 Weighted images in the left paravertebral soft tissue at the C1-C2 level which is seen to turn hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images. This may represent cystic/necrotic area.

Note is made of inflammatory changes in the left mastoid air cells, with effacement of the left torus tubarius.
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. No obvious vascular anomaly is identified on this study.
Incidental note is made of right maxillary sinusitis and mild inflammatory changes in the left ethmoidal air cells.
Enlarged, left cervical lymph nodes are also noted.
IMPRESSION :
The MRI features are suggestive of a mass lesion in the left parapharyngeal space with extensions and signal characteristics as described.
An infective lesion like tuberculosis, or a skull base neoplasm should be considered as a differential diagnosis.
A contrast enhanced scan would be worthwhile.

Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzand Sanlmn / M / 70 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzmpat.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O right sided hemiparesis since 00.00.00.
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 an ill-defined, hyperintense signal on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images in the left fronto-temporo-parietal cortex and subcortical white matter, left lentiform nucleus and head of the left caudate nucleus. This lesion appears hypointense on the T1 Weighted images and represents a recent ischemic lesion. There is resultant effacement of the cerebral cortical sulci in the left fronto-temporo-parietal region, indentation and compression of the left lateral and third ventricle and mild bulge of the midline to the right.
There is an ill-defined, hypointense lesion on the T1 Weighted images in the right occipital lobe. Part of this lesion follows CSF signal on all the pulse sequences. Perilesional white matter hyperintense signal is noted in the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images. Resultant mild dilatation of the atrium and occipital horn of the right lateral ventricle is noted.
There is an ill-defined, hyperintense signal on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images in the periventricular white matter around the frontal horn of the right lateral ventricle. This lesion appears hypointense on the T1 Weighted images.
There is mild dilatation of the right lateral ventricle. The fourth ventricle is normal.
The basal cisternal spaces are unremarkable.

The petrous and cavernous segments of the left internal carotid artery shows an intraluminal hyperintense signal on the T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted images (loss of normal flow void signal). The left vertebral artery is probably hypoplastic.
There is no obvious haemorrhage on this study.
IMPRESSION :
1. Altered signal in the left fronto-temporo-parietal region as described most likely represents a recent ischemic insult.
2. Altered signal in the right occipital region represents an area of cystic encephalomalacia with perilesional gliosis, ? the sequelae of previous vascular insult.
3. Altered signal in the periventricular white matter around the right frontal horn, most likely represents an ischemic lesion.
4. Loss of normal flow void signal in the petrous and cavernous segments of the left internal carotid artery may suggest thrombus/slow flow.
Suggest MRA study for further evaluation.
