Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzi D. Daplmn / F / 55 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzah.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
? G.B.Syndrome.
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.
5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images.
The cervico-dorsal and lumbo-sacral spines were screened with 4 mm thick T2 Weighted sagittal images.
OBSERVATION :
There is an ill-defined hyperintense signal on the T1 Weighted images in the globus pallidus bilaterally which appears isointense to normal grey matter on the proton and T2 Weighted images and would represent paramagnetic substance deposition.
Both the lateral, third and the fourth ventricles are normal. The basal cisternal spaces are unremarkable. There is slight prominence of the cerebellar folia bilaterally. There is no shift of the midline structures. No obvious vascular anomaly is identified on this study.
Inflammatory changes are noted in the paranasal sinuses bilaterally.
Screening images of the visualized spine do not reveal any significant feature of note.
..2/.
- 2 - Scan-00008
IMPRESSION :
Altered signal in the globus pallidus bilaterally would represent paramagnetic substance deposition.
Hepatolenticular syndrome should be ruled out.
No other significant abnormality is detected on this study.
