OBSERVATION :
There are ill-defined, hypointense areas on the T1 Weighted images in the cortex and subcortical white matter in the right high frontal region. This lesion appears hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images and represents an area of cystic encephalomalacia, most likely a sequelae of previous vascular insult.

INTRACRANIAL MRA :
There is irregularity and narrowing of the distal segments of the vertebral arteries bilaterally and the proximal segment of the basilar artery. The left posterior cerebral artery is slightly attenuated.

The visualized anterior cerebral, middle cerebral and right posterior cerebral arteries also show normal signal, calibre and wall margins. No obvious aneurysm or vascular malformation is identified.
NECK MRA :
There is seen slight irregularity of the terminal left common carotid artery along its anterior wall which may suggest an atherosclerotic plaque in that region. Resultant mild stenosis of the terminal left common carotid artery is noted. The right common carotid artery and its bifurcation and the vertebral arteries are unremarkable.

Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzi Milmn / F / 55 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzmpat.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O headaches since 6-12 months.
C/O mild left sided facial paresis since 1-2 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.
OBSERVATION :
Lacunar infarcts (iso to hyperintense to CSF) are noted in the region of the external capsules bilaterally.
There are ill-defined, hyperintense areas on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images in the subcortical and deep white matter in the fronto-parietal regions bilaterally. These lesions appear iso to hypointense to normal white matter on the T1 Weighted images and most likely represent ischemic changes.
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.
Mucosal thickening is noted in the sphenoid sinus.
IMPRESSION :
1. Lacunar infarcts in the region of the external capsules bilaterally.

Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzo Dhulmn / M / 51 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzhari.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Sacrum.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O backache radiating to the LLE with paresthesias since 1 1/2 months.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I of the sacrum was performed using the following parameters :
5 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted sagittal images.
6 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted axial images.
4 mm thick T1 Weighted and STIR coronal images.
OBSERVATION :
The S1, S2 and S3 sacral segments appear hypointense on the T1 Weighted images and heterogeneously hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images. The ala of the sacrum are also involved bilaterally. There is an intermediate signal intensity soft tissue lesion on the T1 Weighted images in the presacral region, which appears hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images. This soft tissue lesion is more on the left side and extends upto the posterior margin of the left psoas muscle. There is also extension of the soft tissue lesion into the sacral canal with thecal sac compression in the upper sacral region and obliteration of the sacral foramina bilaterally. Irregularity of the margins of the sacro-iliac joint per se is also noted with probable involvement of the left sacro-iliac joint. The S1-S2 intervertebral disc appears unremarkable. There is probable involvement of the iliac wings bilaterally.
Small posterior disc herniations with peridiscal osteophytes are noted at the L2-L3, L3-L4 and L4-L5 levels.
The visualized lumbar vertebral bodies reveal normal signal intensity.
IMPRESSION :
Altered signal of the S1, S2 and S3 sacral segments, with presacral and intraspinal soft tissue lesion as described is not specific for a single etiology. A neoplastic process like a round cell tumor is a likely possibility.
The possibility of an infective etiology (tuberculosis) seems less likely.
