Name of the Patient : Abc Xylmn / M / 42 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzah.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O chronic headaches.
H/O multiple addictions.

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 T1 Weighted coronal images.

OBSERVATION :

There is a suspicion of hyperintense signal on the T1 Weighted images within the lentiform nuclei bilaterally and this may represent deposition of paramagnetic substances.

Both the lateral, third and the fourth ventricles are normal. There is slight prominence of the cerebellar folia bilaterally.
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 mild cerebral and cerebellar atrophy.
