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

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O seizures.
H/O mumps 1 year back.

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 T2 Weighted and 5 mm thick FLAIR coronal images.

5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images.

OBSERVATION :

Subtle hyperintense signal is noted within the body and tail of the hippocampus bilaterally , right more than the left on the T2 Weighted images. There also appears to be reduction of the volume of the hippocampus bilaterally, with prominence of the temporal horns.

There is mild fullness of both the lateral ventricles. The 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 hippocampal sclerosis bilaterally.
