Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzngi Glmn / F / 15 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzah.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O mental retardation with seizures.

EXAMINATION :

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

5 mm thick T1 Weighted, proton and T2 Weighted axial images.

3 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted coronal images.

OBSERVATION :

There is seen slight thickening of the cortex in the right cerebral hemisphere with slight effacement of the sulcal spaces of the right cerebral hemisphere.

Both the lateral and third ventricles appear chinky. 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 right maxillary antrum, sphenoid sinus and posterior ethmoidal air cells.

IMPRESSION :

Slight thickening of the cortex of the right cerebral hemisphere with sulcal space effacement may suggest cortical heterotopia (? pachygyria).
