Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzi L. lmn / M / 60 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzshar.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O headaches in the vertex and the right temporal region since 15 days.

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.

OBSERVATION :

There are small bright foci on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images in the right posterior parietal paraventricular white matter. This lesion appears isointense to normal white matter on the T1 Weighted images.

There is focal dilatation of the temporal horn of the right lateral ventricle when compared to the left. Both the lateral, third and the fourth ventricles are otherwise unremarkable. There is slight prominence of the cerebellar folia bilaterally. The basal cisternal spaces are unremarkable. There is no shift of the midline structures. No obvious vascular anomaly is identified on this study.

IMPRESSION :

1. Altered signal in the right posterior parietal paraventricular white matter most likely represents an ischemic lesion.

2. Mild cerebellar atrophy.
