Name of the Patient : Abc Xyz Chandawalmn / F / 71 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzdar / Dr. Abc Xyzmpat.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O giddiness with gait ataxia since 1 month.
C/O diminished vision on the right side.
H/O being hit by a cricket ball on the right side of face.
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 :
Few small bright foci on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images
are seen within the white matter in the right frontal lobe and in the left periatrial white matter. These are iso to hypointense to white matter on the T1 Weighted images and are most likely ischemic in etiology.
The visualized optic nerves bilaterally show normal signal intensity.
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 foci of altered signal intensity within the white matter in the right frontal lobe and in the left periatrial white matter and these are most likely ischemic in etiology.
