Name of the Patient : Abc XyzBelmn / M / 50 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzrnad.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O giddiness and gait imbalance since 1 day.

EXAMINATION :

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

5 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted axial images.
5 mm thick Fast Scan (T2 *) and FLAIR coronal images.

OBSERVATION :

There is a well-defined, hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted and FLAIR images along the left parieto-occipital, parafalcine cortex and in the left cerebellar hemisphere, superiorly and inferiorly. This lesion appears hypointense to normal white matter on the T1 Weighted images. Resultant minimal indentation on the aqueduct and the atrium of the left lateral ventricle is noted.

There is mild dilatation of both the lateral and the third ventricles. The fourth ventricle is normal. The basal cisternal spaces are unremarkable. There is no shift of the midline structures. No obvious vascular anomaly is identified on this study.

Inflammatory changes are noted in the maxillary sinus and ethmoidal air cells bilaterally.

No obvious haemorrhage is noted on this study.

IMPRESSION :

The MRI features suggest non-haemorrhagic, recent infarcts along the left parieto-occipital parafalcine cortex and in the left cerebellar hemisphere.
