Name of the Patient : Abc Xyz S. Tlmn / F / 35 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzchale.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O headaches and diplopia (on & off), giddiness and gait imbalance since 1 year.

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.
5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images.
An MR Cisternogram was obtained in the sagittal plane.

OBSERVATION :

There is no focal area of altered signal intensity or any mass lesion within the brain parenchyma.

There is mild dilatation of both the lateral ventricles. The third and the fourth ventricles are normal. The basal cisternal spaces are unremarkable. The distal aqueduct is not well-visualized. There is no shift of the midline structures. No obvious vascular anomaly is identified on this study.

Inflammatory changes are noted in the paranasal sinuses bilaterally.

Screening T2 Weighted sagittal images of the cervical spine do not reveal any significant feature of note.


IMPRESSION :

1. Mild fullness of both the lateral ventricles.

2. Distal aqueduct is not well-visualized ? cause ? partial stenosis ? congenital.
