HISTORY: ___ woman with Ludwigs Angina. Evaluate for interval
change.
COMPARISON: ___ as well as ___ and ___.
TECHNIQUE: CT of the neck with IV contrast as well as CT of the neck without
IV contrast was performed. Multiplanar reformatted images were generated in
the coronal and sagittal planes. CTDIvol 22 DLP 459.
FINDINGS: In the interval, two drains have been placed terminating on the
right side within the previously large collection of fluid and gas. While the
overall size of the collection and especially the amount of gas directly
adjacent to the catheter tips has decreased, there is still a collection of
fluid more inferiorly located (800B:25). These two pockets communicate with
one another (800B:32). This collection extends across the midline to the
contralateral side. Redemonstration of significant surrounding fat stranding
somewhat improved since the prior study. Inflammation does not appear to
extend into the retropharyngeal space and there is no involvement of the
mediastinum. Reactive lymphadenopathy is unchanged.
There is no pneumomediastinum. Trachea is midline and the imaged lung bases
are clear. The vascular spaces remain well maintained and the arterial
vasculature is patent.
IMPRESSION: Interval placement of two catheters which has decreased the
amount of fluid and particularly the gas within the collection. More
inferiorly, a portion of the collection crosses and communicates with the
pocket where the catheters are located.

CERVICAL: Minimal anterolisthesis of C3 on C4 is noted. Elsewhere, cervical
vertebral bodies are preserved in alignment and they are preserved in height
throughout. No focal suspicious marrow lesion identified. Intervertebral
disc height loss is most severe at C4-5 but also seen at C5-6.
The cervical spinal cord is preserved in caliber and signal. Included portion
of the posterior fossa is unremarkable. Post-contrast images demonstrate no
abnormal enhancement.
At C2-3, there is a small disc bulge and extensive right facet joint
hypertrophy though without significant canal or foraminal narrowing.
At C3-4, there is a disc osteophyte complex and right greater than left
uncovertebral joint hypertrophy. There are extensive right facet joint
hypertrophic changes. Overall, these changes result in mild canal narrowing,
mild left and moderate right foraminal narrowing.
At C4-5, there is a disc osteophyte complex and right greater than left
uncovertebral joint hypertrophy. There is extensive right facet joint
hypertrophic changes. There is moderate to severe right foraminal narrowing
and overall mild canal narrowing. No significant left foraminal narrowing.
At C5-6, there is a disc osteophyte complex and bilateral uncovertebral joint
hypertrophy. These changes result in mild canal narrowing, moderate left and
mild-to-moderate right foraminal narrowing.
At C6-C7, there is a small disc osteophyte complex and left greater than right
uncovertebral joint hypertrophy. There is moderate left and mild-to-moderate
right foraminal narrowing. No significant overall canal narrowing.

the endplates adjacent to the T1-T2 and T8-T9 through T10-T11 intervertebral
discs. No focal suspicious marrow lesion identified.
The spinal cord is preserved in signal and caliber. Post-contrast images
demonstrate no abnormal enhancement.
At T1-T2, there is a disc bulge and facet joint hypertrophy which result in
mild canal and moderate bilateral right worse than left foraminal narrowing.
At T2-T3, there is a disc bulge and facet joint hypertrophy resulting in mild
right foraminal and minimal overall canal narrowing.
At T3-T4, there is thickening of the ligamentum flavum without canal or
foraminal narrowing.
At T4-T5 through T8-T9, there are mild disc bulges and facet joint
hypertrophic changes though without significant canal or foraminal narrowing.

mild canal and moderate right foraminal narrowing.
At T10-T11, there is a disc bulge and moderate facet joint hypertrophic
changes with thickening of the ligamentum flavum. These changes result in
moderate canal narrowing particularly in the AP dimension. There is contact
and remodeling of the cord at this level which appears preserved in signal.
There is also moderate bilateral right worse than left foraminal narrowing.
At T11-T12, there is disc bulge and facet joint hypertrophy resulting in mild
canal narrowing.

INDICATION: History: ___ s/p fall with ICH // eval for hemorrhage vs mass
TECHNIQUE: 3 dimensional time-of-flight MRA was performed through the brain.
An MRI of the head without contrast was also performed. Three dimensional
maximum intensity projection and segmented images were generated. This report
is based on interpretation of all of these images.
COMPARISON: Prior MRI available for comparison. Prior head CT dated ___
FINDINGS:
MRI head: There is a left frontal lobe intraparenchymal hematoma with
surrounding vasogenic edema again noted. Accounting for differences in
modality, this appears similar to appearance on prior CT scan. There is no
evidence of new hemorrhage. There is no evidence of acute territorial
infarction. The ventricles and sulci are prominent but within normal limits
for age. Major vascular flow voids are preserved. The orbits are
unremarkable. There is moderate mucosal thickening within the ethmoid air
cells. The remaining paranasal sinuses and mastoid air cells are clear.
MRA head: Image quality is degraded by motion artifact. The major
intracranial arteries appear normal with no evidence of stenosis, occlusion,
or aneurysm formation.
IMPRESSION:
1. No significant interval change in left frontal lobe intraparenchymal
hematoma with small amount of surrounding vasogenic edema. Intravenous
contrast was not administered. This limits evaluation for the presence of
underlying mass which cannot be entirely excluded. Followup MRI examination
with contrast to evaluate for underlying mass lesion is recommended.
2. MRA images degraded by motion artifact. No definite evidence of aneurysm,
vascular malformation, or stenosis.
RECOMMENDATION(S): Followup MRI examination with contrast to evaluate for

FINDINGS: The visualized portions of the lung bases are clear. There is no
pleural or pericardial effusion.
ABDOMEN AND PELVIS WITH IV CONTRAST: The patient is status post
pancreaticoduodenostomy for a pancreatic head mass that was performed,
___. The stomach is distended to the gastrojejunostomy site,
however, oral contrast has passed into distal decompressed loops of jejunum.
In the mid abdomen a distended loop of bowel contain fecalized material and
exhibits wall thickening. An abrupt caliber change of this distended loop is
located slighlty to the right of the midline just deep to the abdominal wall
near surgical staples (602B:27). Some oral contrast and fecalized material is
seen just distal to the transition point suggesting that this is not a
complete obstruction at this time. The distal small bowel loops are even more
decompressed.
A small amount of intra-abdominal air is expected from the drain entering via
a right lateral abdominal approach and ending in the left upper quadrant
adjacent to the lesser curvature of the stomach. Pancreatic body and tail are
severely atrophic which is unchanged compared to the prior study.
One of the superior mesenteric vein contributories demonstrates an eccentric
areas of hypoattenuation (2:36) which may represent a thrombus adjacent to
surgical clips.
Free fluid in the abdomen and pelvis is more than expected postoperatively.
Subtle areas of peritoneal enhancement may indicate peritonitis. No abdominal
or pelvic lymphadenopathy.
The liver, spleen and kidneys are unremarkable. The gallbaldder and protions
of the duodenum are surgically absent. The appendix is visualized in the
right lower quadrant and is normal. The bladder, uterus and adnexa are
unremarkable. There are no abdominal wall hernias.
OSSEOUS STRUCTURES: There are no osteoblastic or osteolytic lesions
concerning for malignancy.
IMPRESSION:
1. Findings concerning for early or partial small bowel obstructon. A
distended loop of small bowel has a thickened wall and contains fecalized
material with a transition point located just deep to surgical staples to the
right of midline in the mid abdomen. Some contrast has passed into the distal
collapsed loops suggesting perhaps a partial obstruction at this time. The
wall thickening may be reactive or inflammatory, however, ischemia is not
excluded.
2. A superior mesenteric contributory vein adjacent to surgical clips
demonstrates an eccentric area of hypoattenuation which may represent
nonoclussive thrombus vs postop changes with narrowing.
3. The stomach is distended proximal to the gastrojejunostomy site however
contrast is passing into the distal decompressed jejunum.
4. Intra-abdominal and pelvic free fluid that is more than expected
post-operatively. Possible areas of peritoneal enhancement. Correlation with
the possibility of peritonitis is recommended.

TORSO CT FROM ___
HISTORY: This is a ___ man with alcoholic cirrhosis, BPH, and Crohn's
disease (status post proctocolectomy/ileostomy) with unexplained
hypercalcemia. Evaluate for evidence of malignancy.
TECHNIQUE: Multidetector axial images were carried out through the abdomen
and pelvis after administration of high-density oral contrast and with
intravenous injection of 150 cc of Omnipaque 300 nonionic contrast. Coronal
and sagittal reformatted images were filmed.
DOSE REPORT: Total exam DLP is 1271.54 mGy-cm.
COMPARISON: Comparison is made to CT of the abdomen and pelvis dated ___.
FINDINGS: The aortic arch is atherosclerotic and calcified plaque is also
seen in the origins of the coronary arteries and the great vessels. No
pathologically enlarged lymph nodes are seen in either axillary region or in
the mediastinum or hilar regions. What can be seen of the thyroid is normal
in appearance. The heart is moderately enlarged. Bilateral pleural effusions
are present with some overlying subsegmental atelectasis. No parenchymal or
pleural mass is seen. Intervertebral disc space narrowing with irregular
sclerosis and superior endplate compression is seen at the superior endplate
of T8.
In the abdomen, there is slight interval change in the contour of the liver
noted in the left lobe and inferiorly in the right lobe where it has become
slightly more undulating. A 7-mm hypodensity deforming in the anterior
subcapsular region of the left lobe is again seen, but there are now two new
hypodensities in the left lobe, one measuring 4.5 mm (series 2, image 52) and
one measuring 8.5 mm (series 2, image 59). It is possible that these
represent cysts but they are new from the ___ study and are too small to
further characterize. THe pateint is s/p cholecystectomy.
Posteriorly in the right lobe of the liver (series 2, image 55) is a vaguely
wedge-shaped region of heterogeneous density with some serpiginous
hypodensity. There is a very small sliver of free intra-abdominal fluid just
anterior to the liver. There is no significant mass effect associated with
this vaguely wedge-shaped region and by history, the patient has not had liver
biopsy or other intervention. This may be sequela from the patient's recent
episodes of sepsis and further information may be gained with magnetic
resonance imaging. Portal vein is patent.
In the pancreas, a 4-mm hypodensity is seen at the junction of the body and
tail (series 2, image 65) too small to further characterize but possibly a
cyst or IPMN. It is not definitely identified in the ___ study where in
general the pancreas had the same somewhat atrophic appearance as it has on
the current exam.
Calcified atherosclerotic plaque seen in thorax continues into the abdominal
aorta and the origins of great vessels but none appear significantly stenotic
on this routine study. A 9-mm lymph node is seen in the porta hepatis. An
8-mm lymph node is seen near the crux of the diaphragm (series 2, image 58)
with the latter nodes smaller than on the previous exam. Smaller scattered
intra-abdominal lymph nodes are seen. There is no dominant mass identified.
The adrenal glands are normal in appearance. Kidneys enhance symmetrically
and excrete contrast into unobstructed collecting systems.
The spleen is large, up to 18 cm in length and appears increased compared to
___ where it was also outside of normal in its size.
Evaluation of the gut shows that the patient has an ileostomy in the right
lower quadrant pain, which is patent. Normal-appearing small bowel loops are
identified extending down to the rectovesical space. There is some haziness
in the mesentery (series 2, image 100) of uncertain significance.
Bilateral fat-containing inguinal hernias are seen, and the prostate is large
measuring 6.3 cm x 6.4 x 6.7 cm, not significantly different from ___. The
patient now has an indwelling Foley catheter with hypodensity seen in the
posterior prostate adjacent to this. The bladder is decompressed but the wall
is diffusely thickened. No inguinal or pelvic sidewall adenopathy is seen.
Evaluation of bones shows degenerative disease and irregular endplates and
osteophytosis in the vertebral column. There is irregular contour and
trabecular irregularity to the posterior iliac wing on the right adjacent to
the sacroiliac joint. The appearance may be post-traumatic or post-infective
but the appearance is not different compared to ___.
CONCLUSION:
1. New hepatic hypodensities, two in the left lobe, possibly representing
cysts but new compared to ___ and heterogeneous serpiginous hypodensity
posteriorly in the right lobe, possibly sequela from the patient's recent
episodes of sepsis but for which magnetic resonance imaging is recommended for
further evaluation. Note that this occurs on a background of mild cirrhotic
change, splenomegaly and trace ascites.
2. Status post ileostomy with no evidence of obstruction or abdominal mass.
Mild mesenteric stranding.
3. Stable prostate enlargement with thickened bladder wall and indwelling
Foley.
4. Atherosclerosis including coronary artery disease and mild-to-moderate
cardiomegaly.
5. Contour and trabecular irregularity in the posterior right iliac wing not
changed compared to ___.
6. A 4- to 5-mm pancreatic hypodensity, question IPMN. This can be assessed
with MRI when the patient's liver abnormality is evaluated.

pancreas hypodensity, MRI recommended for further evaluation REASON FOR THIS
EXAMINATION: characterization of hepatic/pancreas hypodensity
COMPARISON: CT torso ___
TECHNIQUE: Multiplanar T1 and T2 weighted images were acquired on a 1.5 tesla
magnet, including dynamic 3D imaging, obtained prior to, during, and after the
uneventful intravenous administration of 0.1 mmol/kg (12 cc) of Gadavist
gadolinium contrast. Patient also received 1 cc of Gadavist gadolinium in 50
cc of water for oral contrast.
FINDINGS:
Trace bilateral pleural effusions with associated bibasilar subsegmental
atelectasis. Persistent cirrhotic appearance of the liver. Scattered small
sub-cm T2 hyperintense lesions in the liver could represent small cysts versus
biliary hamartomas. Segment 4A hyper enhancing lesion demonstrating washout
and measuring 18 x 19 mm, consistent with HCC. Serpiginous branch like T2
hypointense lesions in segments 6 and 7 are again visualized, with peripheral
hyperenhancement, similar in appearance compared to prior CT, most likely
represent focal thrombophlebitis. Splenomegaly measuring 18.4 cm in length
unchanged. Multiple small cystic lesions scattered throughout the pancreatic
parenchyma, with some parenchymal atrophy, the largest of these measures 13 x
19 mm in the uncinate process, which appears to contain an enhancing mural
nodule measuring 10 x 13 mm. The pancreatic duct in the body measures
approximately 3-4 mm in diameter, slightly prominent. Sub-cm cortical cysts
bilateral kidneys. Mild bilateral perinephric fat stranding, nonspecific.
Normal caliber abdominal aorta. No evidence of significant lymphadenopathy.
The gallbladder is surgically absent. Partially visualized small and large
bowel appear unremarkable. No evidence of ascites. Small mesenteric and
splenorenal varices are seen. The visualized osseous structures unremarkable.
Image quality is somewhat degraded by motion artifact.
IMPRESSION:
1. Segment 4A 1.9 cm hypervascular lesion with washout consistent with HCC.
2. Segments ___ T2 hypointense branch like lesions most likely represent
focal thrombophlebitis.
3. Persistent cirrhosis, splenomegaly, small varices.
4. Multiple cystic lesions throughout the pancreatic parenchyma, the largest
in the uncinate process containing an enhancing mural nodule, with slightly
dilated main duct, consistent multiple side branch IPMN's.

EXAMINATION: CT HEAD W/O CONTRAST Q111 CT HEAD
INDICATION: History: ___ with subdural hemorrhage and head laceration
TECHNIQUE: Contiguous axial images of the brain were obtained without
contrast. Coronal and sagittal reformations as well as bone algorithm
reconstructions were provided and reviewed.
DOSE: Acquisition sequence:
1) Sequenced Acquisition 18.0 s, 18.1 cm; CTDIvol = 50.0 mGy (Head) DLP =
903.1 mGy-cm.
Total DLP (Head) = 903 mGy-cm.
COMPARISON: CT head ___ at 06:25 from outside institution
FINDINGS:
Re- demonstrated is a hypodense extra-axial collection overlying the right
frontoparietal cerebral convexity measuring approximately 7 mm wide, unchanged
in size and appearance from the previous CT examination and compatible with a
subacute subdural hematoma. There is no shift of normally midline structures
or significant mass effect. No new intracranial hemorrhage or edema is
identified. Periventricular, subcortical and deep white matter hypodensities
are nonspecific, but likely reflect the sequela of chronic microvascular
infarction. Prominence of the sulci and ventricles suggests age-related
involutional changes. Atherosclerotic calcifications of the cavernous carotid
arteries are noted.
Left frontal soft tissue swelling and laceration is demonstrated towards the
vertex with overlying skin staples. There is no evidence of fracture. Mild
mucosal thickening is seen within the right sphenoid sinus in a few scattered
ethmoid air cells bilaterally. The visualized portion of the remaining
paranasal sinuses, mastoid air cells, and middle ear cavities are clear. The
visualized portion of the orbits demonstrate evidence of prior lens
replacement surgery bilaterally.
IMPRESSION:
1. Unchanged right cerebral convexity subacute subdural hematoma without
significant mass effect or shift of normally midline structures. No new
intracranial hemorrhage.
2. Left frontal soft tissue swelling and laceration towards the vertex without
underlying fracture.

EXAMINATION: CT abdomen and pelvis
INDICATION: ___ year old man with several months of back pain, acutely
worsening last night // pls perform second read for outside hospital scan
(the one performed at 8am, not the first one earlier in the morning).
TECHNIQUE: MDCT axial images were acquired through the abdomen and pelvis
following intravenous contrast administration at an outside institution.
Oral contrast was not administered.
Coronal and sagittal reformations were performed.
DOSE: Please refer to original report from outside hospital.
COMPARISON: Reference outside noncontrast CT abdomen and pelvis from ___ obtained at 06:00.
FINDINGS:
LOWER CHEST: Mild atelectatic changes are seen in the lung bases. Coronary
stents are noted along with median sternotomy changes from prior coronary
artery bypass surgery.
ABDOMEN:
HEPATOBILIARY: The liver demonstrates homogenous attenuation throughout.
There is no evidence of focal lesions. There is no evidence of intrahepatic
or extrahepatic biliary dilatation. There is hyperdense material seen
layering in the gallbladder, likely sludge.
PANCREAS: A calcification is seen in the pancreatic body (02:27). Pancreas is
otherwise unremarkable without pancreatic ductal dilatation or focal lesion.
There is no peripancreatic stranding.
SPLEEN: The spleen shows normal size and attenuation throughout, without
evidence of focal lesions.
ADRENALS: The right and left adrenal glands are normal in size and shape.
URINARY: The kidneys are of normal and symmetric size with normal nephrogram.
A subcentimeter hypodensity is seen in the right upper renal pole, too small
to fully characterize but likely cyst. There may be a cortical scar in the
right lower pole, possibly from an old ischemic insult or infection, adjacent
to another too small to characterize hypodensity. There is no evidence of
hydronephrosis. There is no perinephric abnormality.
GASTROINTESTINAL: The stomach is unremarkable. Small bowel loops demonstrate
normal caliber, wall thickness, and enhancement throughout. Diverticulosis is
noted in the sigmoid colon without evidence of acute diverticulitis.
Otherwise, the colon and rectum are within normal limits. The appendix is not
visualized.
PELVIS: The urinary bladder and distal ureters are unremarkable. There is no
free fluid in the pelvis.
REPRODUCTIVE ORGANS: The prostate and seminal vesicles are unremarkable.
LYMPH NODES: There is no mesenteric lymphadenopathy. Prominent
retroperitoneal lymph nodes are noted, the largest seen being a left
para-aortic node measuring up to 0.9 cm (02:40). There is no pelvic or
inguinal lymphadenopathy.
VASCULAR: There is no abdominal aortic aneurysm. A 2.2 x 2.3 x 5.6 cm
heterogeneously hypodense oval round lesion is seen posterior to the
suprarenal aorta, at the level of the celiac take off. The smooth contour of
the lesion and displacement of the intimal calcifications within the aorta
(2:23) are more compatible with marked posterior compression of the aorta
rather than intraluminal thrombus resulting in near complete occlusion.
Additionally, there is hypodensity extending from this lesion into the
anterior aspect of the L1-L2 vertebral disc space with mild asymmetric
widening anteriorly and suggestion of possible erosion of the anterior
bridging osteophyte at L1 (602:74). Mild adjacent fat stranding is identified
about this hypodense lesion. Extensive atherosclerotic disease is noted with
noncalcified plaque within the left gastric artery likely resulting in marked
narrowing. The celiac artery, superior mesenteric artery, and inferior
mesenteric artery are patent.
BONES: There is no evidence of acute fracture. Moderate to severe multilevel
degenerative changes are seen in the lumbosacral spine.
SOFT TISSUES: The abdominal and pelvic wall is within normal limits.
IMPRESSION:
1. 2.2 x 2.3 x 5.6 cm hypodense lesion posterior to the suprarenal aorta with
extensive compression and near complete occlusion of the aorta demonstrates
surrounding stranding and extension to the anterior aspect of the L1-L2
intervertebral disc. Findings may be due to a hematoma, abscess formation
from adjacent lumbar discitis at the L1-L2 vertebral level, or other cystic
lesion external to the aorta. MRI of the lumbar spine with intravenous
contrast along with MRA of the abdomen are recommended for further assessment.
2. Gallbladder sludge.
3. Diverticulosis without acute diverticulitis.
RECOMMENDATION(S): MRI of the lumbar spine with intravenous contrast along
with MRA of the abdomen are recommended for further assessment.

EXAMINATION: MR ___ AND W/O CONTRAST ___ MR SPINE
INDICATION: History: ___ with ?aortic compression from disc, vs aortic
thrombus. Disc bulge?
TECHNIQUE: Sagittal imaging was performed with T2, T1, and STIR technique,
followed by axial T2 imaging. This was followed by sagittal and axial T1
images obtained after the uneventful intravenous administration of 16 mL of
MultiHance contrast agent.
COMPARISON: CT chest from ___ and outside CT abdomen from ___.
FINDINGS:
Based on the count down from the level of first rib-bearing thoracic
vertebrae, there are 5 non-rib-bearing lumbar vertebrae.
The alignment of the lumbar spine is maintained. The vertebral body heights
are maintained at all levels. The visualized lower spinal cord appears
unremarkable with the conus terminating at L1.
There is diffuse decrease in the marrow signal from T12-L5 on T1 and T2
weighted images without any corresponding enhancement on postcontrast images,
nonspecific, either secondary to diffuse marrow infiltrative process or
myeloproliferative disorder. There is however fatty infiltration of the
sacrum. This can be seen related to prior pelvic radiation. Also seen are
___ type 2 changes at T11-T12.
There are large prominent anterior osteophytes at L1-L2 with a lesion just
anterior to the osteophytes. The lesion demonstrates peripheral rim of T1 and
T2 hypointensity with central T2 hyperintensity without any enhancement. This
is favored to be a large focal disc extrusion with peripheral fibrosis and
reactive changes. This appears to be exerting significant mass effect on the
aorta at that level displacing it and narrowing the lumen. However, no
definite infiltration of the aorta is seen. Note that the low signal
intensity on T2 weighted images of the intervertebral disc and the lack of
edema in the vertebral bodies argue strongly against discitis. However, the
prevertebral fluid collection and enhancement raise a concern of possible
infection superimposed on the large disc protrusion. Please refer to separate
dictation of MRA of the abdomen for patency of the lumen.
Also seen are linear tract of T2 hyperintensity, T1 hypointensity with
enhancement on postcontrast images extending inferiorly from the level of
L1-L2 vertebrae to L3-L4 vertebrae as seen on image 3:10 and 10:10 which
demonstrates low signal on previous CT of the abdomen and is favored to be
extruded disc material.
There is atherosclerosis involving the abdominal aorta. There is a 1 cm cyst
in the interpolar region of right kidney. The remaining visualized
retroperitoneal, paravertebral and paraspinal soft tissues appear
unremarkable.
At T12-L1, the intervertebral disc height and signal is maintained. Bilateral
neural foramen and spinal canal are patent.
At L1-L2, there is loss of disc height and signal with prominent anterior
osteophytes in extruded disc material as described above. There is mild
bilateral facet arthropathy. Neural foramen and spinal canal are patent.
At L2-L3, there is loss of disc height and signal with broad-based disc bulge
and superimposed left foraminal disc protrusion resulting in mild left neural
foraminal narrowing. The right neural foramen is patent. The spinal canal is
patent. There is mild narrowing of bilateral lateral recesses contacting the
traversing L3 nerve roots.
At L3-L4, there is loss of disc height and signal with broad-based disc bulge
and bilateral facet arthropathy resulting in mild bilateral neural foramen
narrowing. The spinal canal is patent. There is narrowing of bilateral
lateral recesses contacting the traversing L4 nerve roots.
At L4-L5, there is loss of disc height and signal with broad-based disc bulge,
severe bilateral facet arthropathy resulting in mild bilateral neural foramen
narrowing. Spinal canal is patent.
At L5-S1, there is loss of disc height and signal with broad-based disc bulge
and severe facet arthropathy resulting in moderate bilateral neural foramen
narrowing. Spinal canal is patent.
IMPRESSION:
1. Large prominent anterior osteophytes at L1-L2 with a lesion just anterior
to the osteophytes which exerts mass effect on the aorta causing luminal
narrowing. The lesion is favored to be extruded disc material which extends
inferiorly up to the level of L3 vertebrae as described above. The
prevertebral fluid is likely inflammatory response to the disc protrusion.
However, consider the possibility of superimposed infection, although there is
no evidence of diskitis or osteomyelitis.
2. Diffusely low T1/T2 marrow signal involving the visualized lower thoracic
and lumbar vertebrae, nonspecific, either secondary to myeloproliferative or
infiltrative disorder. Clinical correlation is recommended.
3. Diffuse fatty marrow involving the sacrum, probably secondary to prior
radiation therapy.
4. Multilevel multifactorial degenerative disease of the lumbar spine, worst
at L5-S1 with moderate bilateral neural foramen narrowing.
5. Please refer to separate dictation of MRA of the abdomen for evaluation of
aortic patency.
NOTIFICATION: The concern of possible infection superimposed on disc
protrusion was discussed by telephone by Dr. ___ t 12:30 2 min
after observing the findings.

Lower thorax: Lower lung bases, pleural spaces and lower mediastinal
structures are grossly normal.
Liver: Liver demonstrates homogeneous signal intensity enhancement with no
focal mass. As seen on the comparison CT scan there is subtle nodularity of
the liver, along with a positive posterior notch sign, indicative of
underlying cirrhosis. No intra or extrahepatic ductal dilatation. Layering
material is seen within the gallbladder which likely reflects vicarious
excretion of contrast.
Pancreas: Pancreas demonstrates homogeneous signal intensity with no focal
mass, ductal dilatation or peripancreatic abnormality.
Spleen: Spleen is normal in size and appearance with no focal mass.
Adrenal Glands: Adrenal glands are unremarkable.
Kidneys: Kidneys enhance symmetrically with no dilatation of the collecting
system. Simple cysts are seen within the right kidney, largest measuring up
to 8 mm.
Gastrointestinal Tract: Visualized loops of large and small bowel are within
normal limits with no dilated loops or areas of bowel wall thickening.
Lymph Nodes: No retroperitoneal or upper abdominal lymphadenopathy.
Vasculature: At the level of the origin of the celiac axis the abdominal aorta
is extrinsically narrowed, spanning a length of approximately 3 cm in the CC
dimension, and demonstrating luminal narrowing up to 75%. The abdominal aorta
at this level does not demonstrate internal thrombosis, or dissection. The
luminal narrowing is caused by a nonenhancing cystic structure measuring 2.1 x
1.5 cm (series 6, image 13), which is new when compared to the multiple prior
MR studies. Along the inferior aspect of the cystic structure there is some
low-grade enhancement, favored to represent granulation tissue appear At the
level of luminal narrowing there is evidence of herniated disc, best
appreciated on the MR lumbar spine performed ___, and this
finding has progressed when compared to multiple prior lumbar spines, however
is not favored to represent the cause of the aortic narrowing. Just inferior
to the herniated disc is markedly T2 bright tubular structures within the
retroperitoneum (MR lumbar spine ___, series 3, image 10),
favored to represent dilated lymphatic channels. The constellation of
findings described by is favored to represent background degenerative disc
disease/osteophyte formation which has caused disruption of retroperitoneal
lymphatics, and subsequent granulation tissue. Confirmatory assessment may be
obtained via percutaneous sampling of this cystic structure narrowing the
abdominal aorta, however consultation with interventional radiology is
recommended if this is pursued .
Osseous and Soft Tissue Structures: Multilevel degenerative disc disease,
documented on recent performed MR lumbar spine.
IMPRESSION:
The abdominal aorta at the level of the celiac axis is extrinsically narrowed
by approximately 75% by a 2.1 x 1.5 cm cystic lesion, favored to represent
focally dilated lymphatics. There is no evidence of aortic dissection or
intraluminal thrombus. The constellation of of findings is favored to
represent background chronic degenerative disc disease/ osteophyte formation
which has caught disruption of retroperitoneal lymphatics with subsequent
formation of granulation tissue, and cystic structure representing focally
dilated lymphatic channel exerting mass effect and narrowing the abdominal
aorta. Alternatively the cystic lesion could represent hemorrhagic material,
representative of a "discal cyst". Confirmatory assessment may be obtained
via percutaneous sampling of this cystic structure, however consultation with
intervention radiology is recommended if this is sought after.
