CT HEAD: There is expected contrast opacification of the CSF spaces of the brain including intraventricularly, right greater than left, secondary to patient postioning in the right lateral and Trendelenburg position prior to the exam. There are no masses, mass effect or midline shift. The ventricles and sulci are normal in size. There are no extraaxial fluid collections or subdural hematomas. CT TEMPORAL BONES: The external auditory canal is patent bilaterally. The right middle ear is near completely opacified, including the epitympanum, mesotympanum and hypotympanum. The left middle ear is also partially opacified including the epitympanum, around the ossicles and posterior to the tympanic membrane which is thickened. A tubular lucency courses through the left tympanic membrane indicating presence of a tympanostomy tube (series 6, image 62). Bony defects are noted involving the tegment tympani and tegmen mastoideum bilaterally. High density is noted within the right aditus ad antrum adjacent to the tegmen mastoideum which measures up to 200 Hounsfield units (series 80378, image 58), most compatible with leakage of contrast into the middle ear cavity from the CSF spaces. Review of the outside hospital brain and IAC MRI indicates a small cephalocele in this region (series 10, image 32/56). No definite contrast is visualized in the left middle ear although this is could be secondary to patient positioning. A slow leak cannot be entirely excluded in the left middle ear. There is also osseous dehiscence noted at the level of the anterior genu of the facial nerves bilaterally. The bilateral mastoid air cells are completely opacified. Extensive opacification within the middle ear cavities limits evaluation of the ossicles. However, there are no obvious erosions.The inner ear structures are unremarkable. The jugular bulb and carotid canal are intact.
1.CT cisternogram with expected contrast opacification of the CSF spaces of the brain including intraventricularly following intrathecal administration of 10 cc of Omnipaque 300 contrast.2.Opacification of the middle ear cavities and bilateral mastoid air cells, right greater than left.3.Bony defects involving the tegment tympani and tegmen mastoideum bilaterally. There are areas of high density within the RIGHT middle ear cavity and right aditus ad antrum suggestive of leakage of contrast. There is particular defect in the right tegmen mastoideum (best seen on right coronal oblique image 58/125) with suspected continuity of hyperdensity between the subarachnoid space and aditus ad antrum. Review of the outside hospital brain and IAC MRI suggests a small cephalocele in this region (outside MRI coronal CISS reformat series 10, image 32/56). 4.No definite contrast is visualized in the left middle ear although this is could be secondary to patient positioning. A slow leak cannot be entirely excluded if there is suspicion for CSF otorrhea on the LEFT. 5.Left tympanostomy tube courses within a thickened left tympanic membrane.

Altered mental status. Evaluate for intracranial hemorrhage. There is loss of gray-white matter differentiation with sulcal effacement in the right frontal lobe and right insula, representing recent ischemia possibly from an embolic source. Given the bilaterality of the areas of occipital lobe hypoattenuation, posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome should be considered. There is no evidence of intracranial hemorrhage. There is also a small area of encephalomalacia in the left inferior frontal gyrus, likely related to prior ischemia. There are chronic lacunar infarcts in the right basal ganglia and right corona radiata. The lacunar infarct in the right thalamus is age-indeterminate. There is global parenchymal volume loss. There are scattered punctate and confluent areas of abnormal low density in the periventricular and subcortical white matter, which is non-specific, but most consistent with mild to moderate age-indeterminate small vessel ischemic changes. There is no midline shift or herniation. There is minimal mucosal thickening of the bilateral maxillary sinuses. The other imaged paranasal sinuses are clear. There is complete opacification of the bilateral mastoid air cells and middle ears, which is likely related to intubation.
1. Recent infarct in the right frontal lobe and right insula. Focal areas of hypoattenuation of the bilateral occipital lobes, may be attributable to PRES if clinically appropriate, versus additional embolic infarcts. No intracranial hemorrhage. Per Dr. Sharma's EPIC note, clinical team is aware of ischemic stroke.2. Background of mild to moderate age-indeterminate small vessel ischemic changes.3. Complete opacification of the bilateral mastoid air cells and middle ears, which is likely related to intubation.

Left breast mass for which ultrasound guided biopsy is requested. Left ultrasound re-identified the target lesion for biopsy. The lesion to be targeted is a hypoechoic mass measuring 21 mm at the 7 o’clock position with increased vascularity, 5 cm from the nipple. The lesion was readily visible.PROCEDURE: The procedure and its risks, including bleeding, infection, and failure to diagnose, and expected benefits of ultrasound-guided core biopsy with percutaneous placement of a marking clip and post-procedure unilateral mammogram were discussed with the patient. Questions were answered. Consent was obtained both verbally and in writing. The time-out form was completed to confirm patient identity and side/type of procedure.The left breast was cleansed with chlorhexidine over the target area. Transducer was sterilely sheathed. Local anesthesia was obtained using 2% lidocaine superficially, with 1% lidocaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine at depth. A 3 mm incision was made in the skin with a #11 scalpel blade. Using aseptic technique, continuous ultrasound guidance and a lateromedial approach, three 12-gauge core needle (Celero) specimens were obtained of the lesion. Targeting was judged excellent. All specimens sank to the bottom of the prefilled container of 10% formalin. No specimens floated. Specimen quality was judged excellent.Specimens were sent to Pathology with an accompanying history sheet. Using continuous ultrasound-guidance a Bard ribbon clip was placed into the lesion in the usual manner. Pressure was held over the biopsy site until all bleeding subsided. The skin incision was closed with a Steri-Strip. Post-procedure digital left CC and ML views revealed the percutaneously placed clip to be in the expected location in the central aspect of the lesion. No evidence of hematoma or other complication.A pressure dressing was positioned over the biopsy site and an ice pack positioned over the pressure dressing. Post-procedure instructions were reviewed with the patient both verbally and in writing. She tolerated the procedure well with no evident complications and left the Breast Imaging Department in stable condition.The procedure was performed by Dr. Schacht. Dr. Schacht was present during the procedure at all times.

Palpable left breast mass. An outside ultrasound was performed for only the site of palpable concern, but a mammogram is requested now. Three standard views of both breasts and bilateral spot views were performed digitally and reviewed with the aid of R2 CAD 9.3. The breast parenchyma is heterogeneously dense, which may obscure small masses. There are multiple scattered benign morphology masses in the left breast, the largest located under the palpable marker near the 7:00 position. This is either a single bilobed mass or two adjacent masses of similar morphology. An asymmetry in the right breast disperses with spot compression. No dominant mass, suspicious microcalcifications or areas of architectural distortion in the right breast. ULTRASOUND

The spine is in normal alignment. There is straightening of the normal cervical lordosis. There is mild disk narrowing and diffuse disk dessication at L5-S1. There is also disk desiccation at T8-T9 and throughout the cervical spine. There is central moderate vertebral body height loss of L1 with abnormal T1 hypointense and scattered STIR hyperintense signal in the marrow, suggestive of a component of recent compression deformity. L1 is only partially visualized on the prior CT chest, but appear to be within normal limits. There is mild to moderate concavity of the superior endplate of L4 and to a lesser degree L3 and L5 without significant marrow signal abnormality. There is suggestion of perhaps mild concavity of superior endplate of L4 on previous radiograph.The vertebral body and disk heights are otherwise relatively well-maintained. The spinal cord is of normal caliber and grossly of normal signal. The conus terminates at the approximate L1 level.A trace disk bulge is suggested at T8-T9. There are mild spondylotic changes at C5-C6 and C6-C7 with perhaps mild central spinal canal stenosis. There is no high-grade central spinal stenosis or foraminal narrowing. On the sagittal STIR images, the cauda equina roots appear somewhat disordered and thickened although there is no significant central spinal canal stenosis.

There is mild disk narrowing at L5-S1 with diffuse disk desiccation. There is moderate vertebral body height loss of L1 as well as moderate concavity of the superior endplate of L4. Less prominent superior endplate concavity is noted at L3 and L5, consistent with chronic compression deformities. There is mild enhancement of the L1 vertebra diffusely, suggesting possible recent fracture component. Although the sacrum and visualized right iliac bone appear to enhance on the fat saturated postcontrast images, this is favored to be artifactual given lack of any STIR abnormality. There is a focal area of abnormal signal in the right sacrum at the S2 level which demonstrates marginal T2 hypointensity and minimal enhancement which is nonspecific. There is also a focus of T1/T2 hypointensity likely representing sclerosis in the right iliac wing. There is mild developmental narrowing of the mid to distal lumbar spinal canal due to shortened pedicles and slight prominence of dorsal epidural fat.The lumbar spine is in normal alignment, with a normal lumbar lordosis. There is no pathological intrathecal enhancement. The distal spinal cord and conus are within normal limits with the conus terminating at the L2 level.At T12-L1, there is bilateral facet arthropathy without stenosis.At L1-L2, there is no significant disk pathology or stenosis.At L2-L3, there is bilateral facet arthropathy and ligamentum flavum thickening as well as slight prominence of dorsal epidural fat. There is no significant stenosis.At L3-L4, there is bilateral facet arthropathy and ligamentum flavum thickening. Due to prominence of dorsal dural fat and developmental narrowing, there is mild central spinal stenosis.At L4-L5, there is prominent bilateral facet arthropathy and ligamentum flavum thickening. Due to the underlying developmental narrowing, there is moderate central spinal stenosis with bulging of the cauda equina nerve roots.At L5-S1, there is mild bilateral facet arthropathy and ligamentum flavum thickening along with a mild disk bulge. There is moderate central spinal canal stenosis at this level.There are incidental T2 hyperintense rounded structures associated with the left kidney, one of which may be partially exophytic and only partially visualized. These are nonspecific but may represent small cysts. There is disk desiccation at T8-T9 with a very trace disk bulge.
1. Thickening and redundancy of the cauda equina nerve roots secondary to a combination of underlying developmental narrowing of the mid to distal lumbar spinal canal and superimposed mild spondylotic changes, resulting in moderate central spinal canal stenosis at L4-L5 and L5-S1. This accounts for appearance on previous screening cord compression protocol exam. No evidence of abnormal intrathecal enhancement.2. Scattered lumbar compression deformities as detailed previously, with probable recent component involving L1 and associated marrow changes and enhancement. This deformity was not present on the CT chest of 10/22/2014. Additional new compression fractures are present since lumbar radiograph of June 2014. No significant retropulsion of fracture fragments.3. Small focal minimally enhancing T2 hyperintense lesion within on the right at the S2 level, just lateral to the foramen, which may represent a myelomatous deposit.

Previously seen loculated intrafissural fluid collection has resolved or nearly resolved. There are few small subcentimeter fluid collections in the right lower lobe posterior to the fissure, which may represent loculated collections related to treatment, although intraparenchymal lesions cannot be excluded. Peripheral right lower lobe cavitary mass with peribronchial and pleural extension is difficult to accurately measure, measuring approximately 6 x 3.4 cm (series 6 image 58), previously 6 x 4 cm. Small right pleural effusion. Mild upper lobe predominant centrilobular emphysema. Left lower lobe scarring/atelectasis.MEDIASTINUM AND HILA: No significant mediastinum hilar lymphadenopathy.

1.Although mass and posttreatment changes are difficult to differentiate, right lower lobe cavitary mass and adjacent posttreatment changes have overall decreased in size compared to prior.2.Resolution or near resolution of previously seen right intrafissural fluid collection. A few small fluid density foci in in the right lower lobe may represent residual loculated fluid collections, although parenchymal lesions cannot be entirely excluded. 3.Significant interval increase in size of right kidney inferior pole hypoattenuating lesion with slightly nodular peripheral enhancement. In the appropriate clinical setting, this may represent focal pyelonephritis. If the absence of such clinical setting, then lesion would be suspicious for a cystic metastasis and further characterization with renal protocol CT would be suggested. 4.Findings emailed to Dr. Salgia at the time of dictation (PNR). Livia Szeto (1393) text paged and a voice message was left regarding a finding.

Again seen are postoperative changes of posterior spinal fusion from T7 to T12, T8-T10 laminectomy, and partial corpectomies at T9 and posterior superior aspect of T10. Right costo-transversectomy also seen at T9 and T10 levels. Irregularity involving the left T9 and T10 transverse process disease is also seen, presumably also postsurgical. Interbody fusion at T8-T9. Paraspinous rods and pedicle screws at T7, T8, T11, and T12 appear similar position. No evidence of hardware fracture. Compared to 9/4/2014, interval development of lucency is seen involving the bilateral pedicle screws at T12 there is mild lucency surrounding the T11 screws, particularly on the right. There is loss of intravertebral disk space with vacuum disk phenomenon at T11-T12 and T12-L1 which was present on prior. Mild focal kyphosis is suspected at the T12 level and can be correlated with standing radiographs. There is mild anterior wedging involving the T12 vertebral body, stable to minimally worse compared to 9/4/2014. There appears to be a defect involving the device interconnecting the paraspinous rods at the T11-12 level similar to prior.There is soft tissue density in the surgical bed in the epidural space poorly evaluated on CT but presumably represents postoperative changes/granulation tissue. Small residual calcification/bone fragment is noted in the anterior epidural space at T9 with adjacent soft tissue resulting in mild effacement of the ventral thecal sac. Moderate narrowing of the right T11-T12 neural foramen.No discrete fluid collection is seen. IVC filter partially visualized.

45-year-old female with history of pain and fever. Additional history obtained via EPIC review: Vaginal hysterectomy on 1/5/15 and known postoperative abscess formation. Please note lack of IV and oral contrast limits evaluation of solid organ pathology, and also of the GI tract.CHEST:LUNGS AND PLEURA: No significant abnormality noted.MEDIASTINUM AND HILA: No significant abnormality noted.CHEST WALL: No significant abnormality noted.ABDOMEN:LIVER, BILIARY TRACT: No significant abnormality noted. Cholecystectomy clips.SPLEEN: No significant abnormality noted.PANCREAS: No significant abnormality noted.ADRENAL GLANDS: No significant abnormality noted.KIDNEYS, URETERS: No significant abnormality noted.RETROPERITONEUM, LYMPH NODES: No significant abnormality noted.BOWEL, MESENTERY: No small bowel traction or free air. The appendix is within normal limits.BONES, SOFT TISSUES: No significant abnormality noted.OTHER: No significant abnormality noted.PELVIS:UTERUS, ADNEXA: No significant abnormality noted.BLADDER: No significant abnormality noted.LYMPH NODES: No significant abnormality noted.BOWEL, MESENTERY: No significant abnormality noted.BONES, SOFT TISSUES: No significant abnormality noted.OTHER: Evaluation of pelvis is limited due to lack of oral contrast, however there appears to be free fluid in the pelvis, although it is impossible to determine the amount of loculation.
Free fluid in the pelvis; without contrast it is impossible to determine the extent to which this is loculated. This is consistent with the patient's known history of pelvic abscess.

Reason: 61 yo m w cough, lung masses seen on abd ct, further eval History: cough LUNGS AND PLEURA: Moderate upper lobe predominant centrilobular emphysema. Partially necrotic right lower lobe mass with chest wall invasion that measured approximately 5.5 x 4.2 cm on recent CT abdomen and pelvis with contrast is again identified and better assessed on the prior exam. Associated surrounding atelectasis/consolidation is difficult to differentiate from the mass on this noncontrast examination. Right hilar partially necrotic mass measures approximately 4.2 x 4.1 cm (series 3 image 70). MEDIASTINUM AND HILA: Enlarged right hilar lymph node measures 14 mm in the short axis (series 3 image 54). Mildly enlarged superior mediastinal, bilateral upper and lower paratracheal and precarinal lymph nodes. For reference prevascular lymph node measures 10 mm in the short axis (series 3 image 22). Heart size is normal with no pericardial effusion. Mild coronary artery calcifications.CHEST WALL: No significant abnormality noted.UPPER ABDOMEN: Absence of IV and enteric contrast material limits sensitivity for abdominal pathology. Residual contrast within the left upper kidney. Known left upper pole mass with perinephric stranding incompletely imaged.
1.Large right lower lobe partially necrotic mass with chest wall invasion and large right hilar partially necrotic mass most compatible with primary lung malignancy with metastases. These masses are better assessed on recent CT abdomen and pelvis with contrast, which extended to the level of the hilum.2.Mediastinal lymphadenopathy.3.Incompletely visualized left renal lesion may represent a metastasis or a second primary malignancy.
