EXAM: MR Knee Left wo contrast CLINICAL INFORMATION: Chronic left knee pain COMPARISON: MRI dated April 9, 2021 TECHNIQUE: Multiplanar and multisequence MRI of the left knee was obtained without intravenous contrast. FINDINGS: BONES:No fracture, marrow replacement, or aggressive osseous lesion. ARTICULATIONS: Effusion:None. Patellofemoral compartment:Full-thickness fissure of the midsagittal trochlear groove. The patellar cartilage is unremarkable. Medial compartment:Articular cartilage thinning without full thickness defect. Lateral compartment:Full-thickness articular cartilage defect of the lateral femoral condyle. MENISCI: Medial meniscus: Complex signal of the posterior horn extending to the undersurface and free edge. Susceptibility artifact is noted within the medial femorotibial compartment adjacent to the meniscus likely representing prior surgery. There is mild medial extrusion of the body. Additionally, there is truncation of the free edge of the body suggesting postsurgical change. Lateral meniscus:Intact. LIGAMENTS: Cruciate ligaments:Intact. Medial collateral ligament:Intact. Lateral collateral ligament:Intact. Posterolateral corner structures:Intact. EXTENSOR MECHANISM:The distal quadriceps and patellar tendons are intact. There is fluid surrounding the distal pes anserine tendon insertion. Postsurgical changes are noted in Hoffa's with likely artifact within the knee, predominantly involving the medial patellofemoral compartment. Small amount of prepatellar edema. Small popliteal cyst. CONCLUSION: 1. Increased signal throughout the body and posterior horn of the medial meniscus. Findings either represent surgical changes or recurrent tearing, however, without arthrography, these two cannot be differentiated on MRI. 2. Tricompartmental degenerative changes most prominent in the medial femorotibial compartment. 3. Pes anserine bursitis. As the attending physician, I have personally reviewed the images, interpreted and/or supervised the study or procedure, and agree with the wording of the above report.

MR Chest MSK wo+w contrast TECHNIQUE: Multiplanar multisequence MRI of the chest was obtained without and with intravenous contrast. Patient weight: 245 lbs. IV contrast: ProHance, 20 ml, per protocol. IV contrast injection rate: 1 ml per sec. CLINICAL INFORMATION: Soft tissue mass, chest. Patient reports having a similar mass within this area approximately 15 years ago which revealed benign pathology. COMPARISON: 11/19/2021 FINDINGS: There is a round, well-circumscribed T2 hyperintense and T1 hyperintense mass in the anterior left axillary subcutaneous soft tissues measuring 3.5 x 3.2 x 3.2 cm (AP, transverse, CC) (image 10, series 301; image 11, series 701). This lesion demonstrates faint peripheral enhancement. No surrounding soft tissue edema. There are several benign-appearing left axillary lymph nodes. Mild bilateral axillary cutaneous thickening with increased T2 signal, left greater than right, with associated postcontrast enhancement. No abnormal bone marrow signal to suggest acute fracture or aggressive osseous lesion. The visualized portions of the intrathoracic chest and abdomen are unremarkable. CONCLUSION: 1. Well-circumscribed cystic lesion within the subcutaneous soft tissues of the left axilla is favored to represent a sebaceous cyst. A less likely differential consideration is a soft tissue myxoma. 2. Mild cutaneous thickening of the bilateral axilla with postcontrast enhancement, left greater than right, may represent hidradenitis suppurativa. Correlate clinically. As the attending physician, I have personally reviewed the images, interpreted and/or supervised the study or procedure, and agree with the wording of the above report.

MR Cervical Spine wo+w contrast CLINICAL INFORMATION: 67 years Female fluid collection postop Spec Inst: needs to be done by tomorrow at 3 am. will likely be going to OR tomorrow TECHNIQUE: Multiplanar, multisequence MRI of the cervical spine was performed before and after the intravenous administration of contrast. COMPARISON: MR C-spine 1/7/2022 FINDINGS: CRANIOCERVICAL JUNCTION: Preserved alignment. VERTEBRA: Interval multilevel laminectomies from C3 to C6. Posterior spinal fixation extending from C2--T2. Vertebral body height is preserved with slight reversal of the normal cervical lordosis, without spondylolisthesis. Type II Modic endplate changes, most prominent at C6-C7. Marrow signal is otherwise preserved. DISC SPACES AND FACET JOINTS: Multilevel degenerative changes throughout the cervical spine, most prominent in the mid cervical spine with uncovertebral joint hypertrophy and disc bulge, with herniation at C4-C5 without significant interval change. There is also central disc protrusion at C3-C4, C5-C6 and C6-C7. Individual vertebral levels are discussed in detail below. POSTERIOR FOSSA \T\ CORD: Visualized posterior fossa structures have a normal appearance. There is diffuse extradural enhancement about the visualized cervicothoracic spinal cord and nerve roots without discrete epidural collection. Redemonstrated increased intrinsic T2 signal at C4-C5, similar to prior. However mass effect upon the cervical spinal cord at this level has decreased but there is continued flattening. Focal 4 mm T2 hyperintense signal in the right C3 lateral column is similar to prior and again suggestive of intramedullary hemorrhage. PARAVERTEBRAL SOFT TISSUES: Peripherally enhancing fluid collection in the posterior cervical paraspinal soft tissues overlying the laminectomy defects extends posterior to the C2-C5 vertebral bodies and measures approximately 3.8 x 4.0 x 6.1 cm (axial T2 series 601, image 22 and sagittal T2 series 401, image 8). Additional collection extends posterior to the C6-T3 vertebral bodies and measures approximately 3.4 x 2.8 x 6.0 cm (axial T2 series 601, image one and sagittal T2 series 401, image 8). In the posterior cervical subcutaneous soft tissue, a partially imaged peripherally enhancing collection measures at least 2.8 x 4.2 x 9.9 cm (axial T2 series 601, image 9 and sagittal T2 series 401, image 8). These collections appear to communicate There is soft tissue enhancement diffusely throughout the posterior paraspinal musculature. Precervical edema and C4-C5 is slightly improved. VERTEBRAL LEVELS: C2-C3: No significant spinal canal or neuroforaminal narrowing. C3-C4: Circumferential disc bulge with central posterior protrusion resulting in mild spinal canal stenosis without significant neural foraminal narrowing. C4-C5: Disc osteophyte complex with circumferential disc bulge with posterior protrusion/annular fissure resulting in moderate to severe central canal narrowing and moderate to severe bilateral neural foraminal narrowing. C5-C6: Disc osteophyte complex with disc height loss and circumferential disc bulge resulting in moderate spinal canal stenosis. No significant neural foraminal narrowing. C6-C7: Disc osteophyte complex with circumferential disc bulge resulting in mild spinal canal narrowing. No significant neural foraminal narrowing. C7-T1: No significant spinal canal or neural foraminal narrowing. IMPRESSION: 1. Postsurgical changes of decompressive laminectomies from C3 to C6 and C2-T2 posterior fixation. There is decreased mass effect upon the cervical spinal cord at the C4-C5 level but there is continued abnormal signal within the spinal cord at this level. 2. Multiple peripherally enhancing collections in the posterior paraspinal and posterior cervical soft tissues, as above. There is extensive enhancement throughout the paraspinal musculature and while these may represent seromas it would be difficult to exclude an abscess. There is also diffuse epidural enhancement dorsally which may represent postsurgical changes No discrete epidural collection. 3. Multilevel additional degenerative changes with spinal canal narrowing and neural foraminal narrowing as described above. 4. Similar appearance of T2 hypointense small focus in the C3 right lateral column, again suggesting focal intramedullary hemorrhage. As the attending physician, I have personally reviewed the images, interpreted and/or supervised the study or procedure, and agree with the wording of the above report.

Patient weight: 117 lbs. IV contrast: ProHance, 10 ml, per protocol. IV contrast injection rate: 0.50 ml per sec. FINDINGS: Postcontrast images are nondiagnostic secondary to motion artifact. There is no acute infarction, intracranial hemorrhage, brain edema or mass effect. Age advanced cerebral volume loss, most prominent in the bilateral frontal lobes. Periventricular and subcortical white matter T2/FLAIR signal hyperintensities are nonspecific, but suggestive of mild chronic microangiopathic ischemic changes. Lacunar infarcts are noted in the bilateral subinsular cortex and bilateral thalami. Diffuse T2 hypointense signal and SWI susceptibility artifact in the basal ganglia suggestive of iron deposition. Bilateral caudate head atrophy, with decrease of the frontal horn width to intercaudate distance ratio. Mild ex vacuo dilation of the ventricular system. There is no abnormal extra-axial collection. The bilateral orbits and globes have a normal appearance. Mucosal thickening in the left posterior ethmoid air cells with left sphenoid sinus mucous retention cysts. The remaining paranasal sinuses and bilateral mastoid air cells are otherwise clear. No focal soft tissue abnormality. Hyperostosis frontalis interna. IMPRESSION: 1. No acute intracranial abnormality. 2. Age advanced cerebral volume loss, most prominent in the bilateral frontal lobes, with mild chronic microvascular ischemic changes as above. 3. Frontal horn width to intercaudate distance ratio is slightly decreased, suggestive of bilateral caudate head atrophy, associated with iron deposition noted in the bilateral basal ganglia. These findings are nonspecific, however have been described in patients with Huntington's disease. As the attending physician, I have personally reviewed the images, interpreted and/or supervised the study or procedure, and agree with the wording of the above report.
