Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzsham Saif Sullmn / F / 3 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzrani.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O headaches with difficulty in walking.
? C/O cerebral palsy.

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.

5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images.

3 mm thick T2 Weighted coronal images.

OBSERVATION :

There is a small bright focus on the proton and T2 Weighted images in the left corona radiata which may represent a prominent perivascular space/lacune.

There is mild fullness of the frontal horns and bodies of the lateral ventricles bilaterally. The third and fourth ventricles are normal. There is thinning of the corpus callosum.

The hippocampal complex is unremarkable on either side.

The basal cisternal spaces are unremarkable. There is no shift of the midline structures. No obvious vascular anomaly is identified on this study.







The atlanto-axial region and the cervico-medullary junction are unremarkable on this study.

IMPRESSION :

The MRI features are suggestive of :

1. Altered signal in the left corona radiata may represent a prominent perivascular space/lacune.

2. Thinning of the corpus callosum.
