INDICATION: ___ year old man with GI bleeding, Failed Colonoscopy (unable to
proceed to cecum)// assess for mass, large ulcer
TECHNIQUE: Axial contiguous slices were obtained from the lung bases to the
pubis symphysis after insufflation of intrarectal air in the prone and supine
positions. Intravenous contrast was not administered.
DOSE: Total DLP (Body) = 396 mGy-cm.
FINDINGS:
CT COLONOGRAPHY: There is mild fluid within the ascending colon with minimal
retained fecal matter. The fluid displaces with repositioning. There is a 5-7
cm segment of proximal descending colon which is persistently decompressed,
limiting evaluation. Allowing for this, no suspicious lesions are seen. There
is no evidence of polyps or mass. There is no evidence of stricture or
inflammatory disease.
CT ABDOMEN WITHOUT IV CONTRAST: Portions of the upper abdomen are not well
visualized due to beam hardening artifact from the patient's upper
extremities. Allowing for this, the liver, gallbladder, adrenals, kidneys, and
pancreas are within normal limits. The spleen is enlarged, measuring 16.0 cm.
The stomach and bowel loops are unremarkable. There is no free fluid, free
air, or adenopathy. An IVC filter is in place, with the IVC inferior to the
filter not well visualized secondary to chronic clot. Numerous superficial
collateral veins are noted in the abdominal wall. Severe atherosclerosis is
noted.
CT PELVIS WITHOUT IV CONTRAST: The bladder and rectum are within normal
limits. Prostate is unremarkable. There is no free fluid
BONE WINDOWS: There are no suspicious osseous lesions.
Multiplanar reformatted images and 3D endoluminal navigation performed in the
antegrade and retrograde direction were utilized to confirm the above
findings.
IMPRESSION:
No significant polyp or mass identified (greater than 1 cm), though there is a
5-7 cm segment of descending colon that was collapsed and a mass small or flat
mass here cannot be excluded. The sensitivity of CT colonography for polyps
greater than 1 cm is 85-90%. The sensitivity for polyps 6-9 mm is about
60-70%. Flat lesions may be missed with CT Colonography.

intracranial findings including improved pachymeningeal
thickening/enhancement, improved areas of leptomeningeal enhancement, decrease
in the previously described areas of tubular/sulcal susceptibility and
FLAIR/diffusion signal abnormality
3. Irregular narrowing of the left common carotid artery on the MRA neck is
likely secondary to adjacent susceptibility artifact and less likely stenosis.

FINDINGS:
CT HEAD WITHOUT CONTRAST:
There is no acute hemorrhage, mass effect, or evidence for an acute major
vascular territorial infarction. Unchanged areas of encephalomalacia/gliosis
in the right inferior frontal and anterior temporal lobes which may be
secondary to chronic infarcts. Unchanged periventricular/deep white matter
hypodensity, nonspecific but likely secondary to chronic small vessel ischemic
disease in this age group. Age-related mild parenchymal volume loss with
associated prominence of the ventricles and sulci.
There is partial left mastoid air cell opacification. Paranasal sinuses
appear grossly well-aerated. Status post bilateral cataract surgery. Torus
tubarius is incidentally noted.
CTA NECK:
There is mild calcified plaque in the proximal right internal carotid artery
without stenosis by NASCET criteria. Proximal left internal carotid artery
demonstrates no evidence for thorough sclerosis and no stenosis for NASCET
criteria. Evaluation of the medialized mid left common carotid artery is
limited by streak artifact from lower cervical ACDF hardware. Evaluation of
bilateral mid internal carotid arteries is limited by streak artifact from
bilateral C2-C3 posterior element screws.
Evaluation of V1 and proximal V2 segments of the vertebral arteries is limited
by streak artifact from lower cervical ACDF hardware, as well as concentrated
contrast in the right subclavian vein refluxing into the lower right internal
jugular vein. There is otherwise no evidence for vertebral artery stenosis.
CTA HEAD:
The vessels of the circle of ___ and their principal intracranial branches
appear widely patent without evidence for flow-limiting stenosis or aneurysm.
Normal-variant early branching of bilateral A2 segments is noted.
CTV HEAD:

right sigmoid sinus, and the right jugular fossa, without extension into the
right internal jugular vein below the skullbase, in the same distribution as
on ___ and ___ MRI, images 4:221-196. The filling
defect appears larger than on the most recent ___ MRI, though this
could in part be secondary to differences in modalities.
There is also partial filling defect in the superior sagittal sinus, image
4:252, not significantly changed since the most recent ___ MRI
allowing for differences in modalities. A
Other dural venous sinuses appear patent. Previously noted left parietal
developmental venous anomaly is again faintly visualized, for example on image
5:59.
OTHER:
The thyroid is grossly unremarkable allowing for streak artifact from dental
amalgam. No pathologically enlarged lymph nodes by CT criteria. Evaluation
of the included upper lungs is limited by respiratory motion artifact, with
slightly mosaic attenuation which may be secondary to expiratory phase of
imaging and slight air trapping.
There are bilateral screws traversing the C3-C4 facet joints and posterior
elements. There is ACDF at C5-C7. No evidence for hardware related
complications on axial images; sagittal and coronal MIPS images are not
technically suitable for evaluating the surgical hardware. There is mild
anterolisthesis of C3 on C4 and of C4 on C5, and other multilevel degenerative
changes in the cervical spine.
IMPRESSION:
1. No evidence for acute hemorrhage or large acute infarction.
2. Stable areas of encephalomalacia/gliosis in the right inferior frontal and
anterior temporal lobes.
3. Cervical spine hardware related streak artifacts limit evaluation of the
left mid common carotid and bilateral mid internal carotid arteries, and of
the V1 and proximal V2 vertebral artery segment. Otherwise, no evidence for
carotid stenosis by NASCET criteria or flow-limiting vertebral stenosis.
4. Normal CTA of the circle of ___.
5. Nonocclusive filling defect involving the right transverse sinus, right
sigmoid sinus, and right jugular fossa appears slightly larger than on the ___ and ___ MRI, but differences in appearance may in
part be secondary to differences in modalities.
