Date : 00.00.00

Name of the Patient : Abc Xyz Shlmn / F / 18 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzah.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Cervical Spine.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

Previous MRI s/o tuberculous spine involving the C5, C6 and C7 vertebrae. On AKT since February 0000.

EXAMINATION :

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

5 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted sagittal images.

5 mm thick T1 Weighted and Fast Scan (T2 *) axial images.

5 mm thick T1 Weighted and STIR coronal images.

OBSERVATION :

Areas of hypointensity on the T1 Weighted images are still seen to involve the C5, C6 and C7 vertebral bodies and these vertebral bodies are seen to turn hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images.

There is extension of this pathologic process into the anterior and right lateral epidural space over the C4 to C7 vertebral levels with resultant indentation upon the spinal cord. The cord over these levels shows a subtle hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted images suggesting cord edema/ischemia/myelitis. Also seen is encroachment into the neural foramina bilaterally at the C5-C6 and C6-C7 levels and on the right side at the C4-C5 and C7-D1 levels with encasement of the corresponding exiting nerve roots. The right pedicles of the C5, C6 and C7 vertebrae are involved.



The pathologic process is also seen to extend into the prevertebral, right paravertebral and right posterior paraspinal soft tissues over the C2 to C7 levels. There is partial encasement of the right vertebral artery over the C5 to C7 levels which however shows normal flow void signal. This soft tissue lesion is hypointense with a hyperintense rim on the T1 Weighted images and turns hyperintense with a hypointense rim on the Fast Scan (T2 *) images and this may represent an abscess (which appears to be loculated).

The C2-C3 to C5-C6 intervertebral discs show loss of water content. The C6-C7 intervertebral disc is hyperintense on the T2 Weighted images (? involved by the pathologic process).

The rest of cervical vertebral bodies and the remaining intervertebral discs show normal signal intensity. The joints of Luschka are unremarkable.

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

Mucosal thickening is noted in the sphenoid sinus.

IMPRESSION :

In a known C/O tuberculous spine, the MRI features are suggestive of altered signal of the C5, C6 and C7 vertebrae with soft tissue extensions and cord compression with cord edema/ischemia/myelitis over the C4 to C7 vertebral levels as described.

As compared to the previous MRI (study no.00004) dated 00.00.00, there is reduction in the pre and paravertebral soft tissue component as well as the epidural lesion and the degree of cord compression.

Name of the Patient : Abc Xyz Bhattachlmn / M / 27 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzwant.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O seizures since 0000. On anti-epileptics.
Now C/O headaches and heaviness on the right side.

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.
5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images.
5 mm thick FLAIR coronal images.

After administration of contrast the following parameters were used :

5 mm thick T1 Weighted axial and 3 mm thick T1 Weighted coronal images with magnetization transfer.
5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images.

OBSERVATION :

There is an ill-defined hypointense area in the right parieto-occipital region involving the subcortical white matter on the T1 Weighted images. This is seen to turn hyperintense on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images. There is no significant mass effect. This most likely represents perilesional edema.

After administration of contrast, there is a small, well-circumscribed ring enhancing lesion measuring approximately 4.0 mms in diameter (se/im 102.15, 103.2) in right posterior parietal cortex.
Scan-00004



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.

Incidental note is made of bilateral mastoiditis, left maxillary and frontal sinusitis and inflammatory changes in the ethmoidal air cells.

IMPRESSION :

A 4.0 mms diameter sized ring-enhancing lesion in the right posterior parietal cortex with perilesional edema, is not specific for a single etiology. It is difficult to characterize this lesion on the T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted images. This lesion, however, most likely represents a cysticercus in the granular-nodular stage.

Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O visual defect on the right side with pain in the right eye since 2 1/2 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.

3 mm thick T1 Weighted and STIR coronal images through the optic nerves.

OBSERVATION :

There is volume loss in the right posterior parietal region. There is an ill-defined, hyperintense signal on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images in the subcortical white matter in the right posterior parietal region, right periatrial region and in the right centrum semiovale. This lesion appears iso to hypointense to normal white matter on the T1 Weighted images and represent gliotic/encephalomalacic changes, most likely the sequelae of previous vascular insult. Resultant minimal fullness of the posterior body, atrium and occipital horn of the right lateral ventricle is noted.

There is slight increase in the perioptic CSF around the right optic nerve which may suggest right optic nerve atrophy.






There is loss of normal flow void signal in the petrous and cavernous segments of the right internal carotid artery which suggest slow flow/thrombus.

The left lateral, third and the fourth ventricles are normal. The basal cisternal spaces are unremarkable. There is no shift of the midline structures.

IMPRESSION :

1. Volume loss in the right posterior parietal region with altered signal in the subcortical white matter in the right posterior parietal region, right periatrial region and in the right centrum semiovale most likely represent gliotic/ encephalomalacic changes, probably the sequelae of previous vascular insult.

2. Right optic nerve atrophy.

3. Loss of normal flow void signal in the petrous and segments of the right internal carotid artery suggest slow flow/thrombus.
