Name of the Patient : Abc Xyza Agalmn / F / 14 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzah.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O seizure disorder.

EXAMINATION :

M.R.I of the brain was performed using the following parameters :

5 mm thick T1 Weighted, proton and T2 Weighted axial images.

3 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted coronal images.

OBSERVATION :

There is seen an approximately 4 mm diameter sized hypointense lesion, more pronounced on the T2 Weighted images in the right occipital cortex. This may represent a calcified granuloma. Minimal, perilesional, white matter hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted images is noted which may represent gliotic 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.

Note is made of pansinusitis.

IMPRESSION :

The MRI features are suggestive of 4 mm diameter sized lesion
in the right occipital cortex may represent a calcified granuloma.

If clinically indicated, a contrast enhanced scan would be worthwhile.
