Name of the Patient : Abc Xyz Jalmn / F / 61 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzndu.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

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 a hyperintense signal on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images in the left lentiform nucleus, posteriorly, extending into the left corona radiata. This lesion appears hypointense on the T1 Weighted images and most likely represents a recent ischemic lesion , in the given clinical setting.

A lacunar infarct is noted in the right corona radiata.

There is mild fullness of both the lateral ventricles. The 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.

There is no evidence of haemorrhage.

IMPRESSION :

1. Altered signal in the left lentiform nucleus, posteriorly, extending into the left
corona radiata, most likely represents a recent ischemic lesion, in the given clinical
setting.
2. Lacunar infarct in the right corona radiata.
