EXAMINATION :

M.R.I of the sella and perisellar region was performed using the following parameters :

3 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted coronal images.

The brain was screened with 5 mm thick T2 Weighted axial images and 5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images.

OBSERVATION :

The pituitary gland is normal in its size, contour and location and reveals normal signal intensity. The posterior pituitary gland reveals normal hyperintense signal on the T1 Weighted images. The pituitary stalk is in the midline. The hypothalamus is unremarkable.

The cavernous sinuses and the suprasellar cisterns are unremarkable.

Screening images of the brain show no focal area of abnormal signal within the brain parenchyma. The ventricular system is normal. There is no midline shift.






The sphenoid sinus shows a midline vertical septum. Mucosal thickening is noted along the floor of the sphenoid sinus on the left and along the roof of the sphenoid sinus on the right. Inflammatory mucosal thickening is also noted in the maxillary and ethmoid sinuses.
