Name of the Patient : Abc Xyza Kalmn / F / 23 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzmpat.
Examination : M.R.I. of the Brain.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
H/O cervical lymphadenopathy for which patient was operated. Completed AKT.
Now C/O gait ataxia with weakness of the LUE, headaches and giddiness.
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 and 7 mm thick Fast Scan (T2 *) coronal images.
5 mm thick T1 Weighted sagittal images.
OBSERVATION :
There is a small bright focus on the proton, T2 Weighted and FLAIR images adjacent to the right frontal horn of the right lateral ventricle. This lesion appears iso to hypointense to white matter on the T1 Weighted images.
Focal hypointense signal on the T1 Weighted images in the globus pallidi bilaterally which blooms on the Fast Scan (T2 *) images represents globus pallidus calcification.
There is mild dilatation of both the lateral ventricles. The third and fourth ventricles are normal.
Scan-00007
The basal cisternal spaces are unremarkable. There is no shift of the midline structures. No obvious vascular anomaly is identified on this scan.
Inflammatory changes are noted in the paranasal sinuses bilaterally.
IMPRESSION :
Focal altered signal in the right frontal periventricular white matter is of ? etiology ?? gliotic/ischemic focus.
As compared to the previous MRI dated 00.00.0000, there is no significant change noted.
