Name of the Patient : Abc Xyz A. lmn / M / 70 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzeswani.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O giddiness since 25 days.
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.
MR cisternogram was obtained in the coronal plane.
5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images.
OBSERVATION :
There is volume loss in the right temporal cortex, laterally, ? due to previous ischemic lesion (scans 104.8, 102.8, 105.10, 105.11).
There is no focal area of altered signal intensity in the brain parenchyma.
There is mild prominence of the cerebral cortical sulci and cerebellar folia bilaterally.
The seventh and eighth cranial nerve complex on either side is unremarkable.
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.
Inflammatory changes are noted within the sphenoid and both maxillary sinuses.
IMPRESSION :
The MRI features are suggestive of mild prominence of the cerebral cortical sulci and cerebellar folia bilaterally and this is most likely age related.
Volume loss in the right temporal cortex, laterally, is ? due to previous ischemic lesion.
