Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzmpat.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O numbness from the waist downwards. Patient has received AKT in the past for chest affliction.

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

OBSERVATION :

There is no focal area of altered signal intensity in the brain parenchyma.

The right optic nerve appears to be atrophic with an increase in the perioptic CSF signal on the STIR images.

There is mild prominence of the cerebellar folia and cerebral cortical sulci bilaterally. Also seen is mild fullness of the third and both the lateral ventricles.

The fourth ventricle is 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 optic nerve atrophy on the right side.
