Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzambalmn / M / 19 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzadia.
Examination: M.R.I. of the Right Ankle..

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O pain in the right ankle since 6 months.
H/O fall 6 months back.

EXAMINATION :

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

4 mm thick T1 Weighted and Fast Scan (T2 *) sagittal images.

4 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted axial images.

4 mm thick T1 Weighted and STIR coronal images.

OBSERVATION :

There are small hypointense areas in the superior aspect of the talus in the subchondral region on the T1 Weighted images which are seen to turn slightly hyperintense on the Fast Scan (T2 *) images and would represent subchondral cysts or osteochondritis dissecans.

Small punctate hypointense areas are seen within the inferior aspect of the talus on the T1 Weighted images and which are seen to turn hyperintense on the T2 Weighted and STIR images . These may represent bone cysts.

Effusion is seen within the right ankle joint.

The rest of the visualized bones, ligaments and soft tissues are unremarkable.


IMPRESSION :

The MRI features are suggestive:

1. Altered signal in the superior aspect of the talus in the subchondral region may represent subchondral cysts or osteochondritis dissecans.
2. Altered signal in the inferior aspect of the talus.
3. Effusion within the right ankle joint.
