Name of the Patient : Abc Xyz lmn / M / 25 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzah.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O headaches with episodic loss of vision bilaterally (3 episodes) since 2-3 months.

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.

MR Venogram was obtained using a 2D TOF sequence.

OBSERVATION :

There are multiple well-circumscribed areas which are iso to hyperintense to CSF on all the pulse sequences within both the cerebral and cerebellar hemispheres, cerebellar vermis and midbrain. A few of these lesions are seen to have a speck which is isointense to white matter within them and which would represent a scolex. A few of these lesions are surrounded by areas of hypointensity on the T1 Weighted images and which turn hyperintense on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images and would represent perilesional edema.

There is no obvious thrombosis of the visualized dural venous sinuses on the MR Venogram.









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

IMPRESSION :

The MRI features are suggestive of multiple well-circumscribed lesions in the supratentorial and infratentorial brain parenchyma as described and would represent cysticerci in the vesicular and colloidal vesicular stages.
