1,361.7 mGy-cm. Total DLP (Head) = 2,292 mGy-cm.
COMPARISON: None available.
FINDINGS:
Head CT: There is no evidence of hemorrhage, edema, masses, mass effect, or
acute vascular territorial infarction. Prominent ventricles and sulci are
likely due to age-related volume loss. Bilateral periventricular, subcortical
and deep white matter densities are non-specific, but may be a sequela of
chronic small vessel ischemic disease. No fractures are identified. There is
mucosal thickening within the bilateral maxillary and ethmoid sinuses.
Frontal and sphenoid sinuses are clear. The mastoid air cells are well
aerated bilaterally. The orbits are unremarkable.
Head CTA: The anterior and posterior circulation vessels are widely patent,
without evidence of aneurysm, stenosis or dissection. Incidental note is made
of a fetal origin of the right PCA, a normal variant.
Neck CTA: There is a normal 3-vessel arch. Atherosclerotic calcifications
are seen at the aortic arch and cavernous portions of bilateral internal
carotid arteries. The carotid and vertebral arteries and their major branches
are otherwise patent with no evidence of stenoses. There is no evidence of
internal carotid stenosis by NASCET criteria.
There is a small focus of nonspecific density/consolidation along the anterior
lateral aspect of the left upper lobe (5:10). There is a 10 x 8 mm hypodense
nodule in the left thyroid lobe (5:90). Mild multilevel degenerative changes
are noted in the cervical spine.
IMPRESSION:

FINDINGS:
CT HEAD WITHOUT CONTRAST:
There is re- demonstration of a hyperdense mass centered in the right
cavernous sinus, with extension into the right sphenoid sinus and erosion of
the clivus and sella on the right (02:12). Elsewhere, there is no evidence of
acute vascular territorial infarction, intracranial hemorrhage, or edema. The
ventricles and sulci are normal in size and configuration.
The middle ear cavities and mastoid air cells are clear, as are the bilateral
maxillary and frontal sinuses. The orbits are unremarkable.
CTA HEAD:
Multiple serpiginous, tear-drop shaped, and rounded foci of arterial
enhancement centered within the right cavernous sinus mass suggest dense
vascularity or pseudoaneurysm formation (3:111), although there is no distinct
connection between the apparent internal carotid artery on the right. No
sequelae of carotid cavernous fistula is noted, as the parent right internal
carotid artery is normal in caliber, with no evidence of aneurysmal formation
or stenosis, in the superior right ophthalmic vein is normal in appearance.
The mass measures approximately 3.0 x 1.8 cm in the axial plane, not
significantly changed. There is slight ___ lateral displacement of the
right internal carotid artery, which is otherwise unremarkable. The remaining
vessels of the circle of ___ and their principal intracranial branches
appear normal with no evidence of stenosis,occlusion or aneurysm. The dural
major venous sinuses are patent.
The previously described expansile lytic lesion centered in the right
mandibular ramus demonstrates postcontrast enhancement centrally (2:2, 3:70).
Along the inferior aspect of the mass as it approaches the angle of the
mandible, there is anterior cortical bone loss (03:56). The patient is
partially edentulous along the posterior right mandible, with absence of the
first through third molars, and a small amount of residual soft tissue or
fluid in the expected location of the first and second mandibular molars on
the right (03:39, 46).
IMPRESSION:
1. Lobulated, densely vascular mass is centered in the right cavernous sinus
and appears partially cystic, with extension into the right sphenoid sinus and
erosion of the right clivus and sella. Differential diagnosis is broad and
includes ___'s cell histiocytosis, sarcoma, and less likely atypical
hemangioma or atypical mucocele.
2. Expansile, lytic lesion in the right mandible with central enhancing
component could also be explained by ___'s cell histiocytosis or
sarcoma.
3. Numerous enhancing blood vessels and possible pseudoaneurysms within the
right cavernous sinus mass are demonstrated on the CTA, and although the right
internal carotid artery is slightly anterolaterally displaced, there is no
evidence of internal carotid artery stenosis or discrete feeding vessel.
4. No CTA sequelae of carotid-cavernous fistula.
RECOMMENDATION(S): Dedicated catheter angiogram is recommended for further
evaluation of findings described in IMPRESSION #'s 1 and 3.

diffusion imaging. After administration of 8 mL of Gadavist intravenous
contrast, axial imaging was performed with gradient echo, FLAIR, T2, and T1
technique. Sagittal MPRAGE imaging was performed and re-formatted in axial and
coronal orientations. This report is based on interpretation of all of these
images.
COMPARISON: Head CT/CTA from ___.
FINDINGS:
MRI BRAIN:
There is a 2.8 cm AP x 2.1 cm TR x 1.9 cm SI lobulated, heterogeneous mass
within the right lateral aspect of the cavernous sinus and within the right
sphenoid sinus. The mass demonstrates hyperintensity with multiple linear
foci of low signal (likely flow voids) on T2 weighted images, isointensity to
the brain with multiple small foci of hyperintensity (likely flow related
enhancement within small blood vessels) on precontrast T1 weighted images, and
relatively homogeneous enhancement on postcontrast T1 weighted images. The
mass appeared hypervascular on the preceding CTA. The mass extends into the
sella, displacing the pituitary gland superiorly and to the left, and
displacing the infundibulum to the left. The pituitary gland approaches but
does not compress the optic chiasm on the right. The preceding CTA
demonstrates erosion of the right sellar floor. There is abnormal signal in
the right lateral clivus, where the preceding CTA demonstrates erosion.
Slightly asymmetric there dural enhancement along the right medial floor of
the middle cranial fossa is seen, which may be reactive or may indicate
invasion.
There is an expansile T2 hyperintense enhancing lesion involving the right
mandibular body, angle, and ramus, which was partially visualized on the
preceding CTA.
Within the brain parenchyma, there is no evidence for edema, abnormal
diffusion, blood products, or mass.
There is mild mucosal thickening in the ethmoid air cells.
MRA BRAIN:
The intracranial vertebral and internal carotid arteries and their major
branches appear widely patent without evidence for flow-limiting stenosis or
aneurysm formation. Fetal configuration of the right posterior cerebral
artery is noted with a small P1 segment and a large right posterior
communicating artery, a normal variant. While the preceding CTA demonstrated
a large blood vessel with the same density as the arteries within the right
cavernous sinus/sphenoid mass, the present MRA demonstrates no definite
arterial flow within the mass. The mass displaces the right cavernous carotid
artery anterolaterally without narrowing.
IMPRESSION:
1. Large lobulated mass within the right cavernous sinus mass and the right
sphenoid sinus, with erosion into the right aspect of the sella and erosion of
the right clivus. The mass demonstrates multiple small blood vessels. While
the CTA from one day earlier demonstrated a large blood vessel with same
density as other arteries within the mass, the present MRA does not
demonstrate any arterial flow within the mass.
2. Expansile aggressive lesion in the right mandible, which is only partially
included on the present MRI and the preceding CT, and is therefore not
optimally assessed.
3. Diagnostic considerations for the right cavernous sinus/right sphenoid
sinus mass include atypical aggressive hemangioma (although the large blood
vessel with arterial density on the preceding CTA new would be unusual even
for an atypical hemangioma). Diagnostic considerations for both
above-described lesions include Langerhans cell histiocytosis and sarcoma.
Metastatic disease is less likely but may also be considered in an appropriate
clinical setting.
4. The right cavernous internal carotid artery is displaced anterolaterally by
the right cavernous sinus/sphenoid mass without narrowing.
RECOMMENDATION(S):
1. Recommend conventional cerebral angiography to determine whether there is
any arterial flow within the right cavernous sinus/sphenoid sinus mass.
2. Recommend a dedicated CT of the mandible for better characterization of the
right mandibular lesion.

EXAMINATION: MR HEAD W/O CONTRAST T9113 MR HEAD
INDICATION: ___ year old man with concern for first time seizure. Evaluate
for stroke or seizure focus.
TECHNIQUE: Sagittal MP RAGE with multiplanar reformations, sagittal 3D FLAIR
with multiplanar reformations, coronal FSTIR, axial diffusion weighted, and
axial gradient echo images of the brain were obtained. All images were
reviewed in the production of this report. The examination was performed using
a 1.5T MRI scanner.
COMPARISON: Head CT from ___
FINDINGS:
There is no evidence of edema, mass effect, acute infarction, or blood
products. Prominence of the ventricles and sulci is compatible with
involutional changes. Small foci of high T2 signal in the periventricular,
deep, and subcortical white matter of the cerebral hemispheres are nonspecific
but likely reflect sequelae of chronic small vessel ischemic disease in this
age group.
Symmetric severe volume loss of the bilateral hippocampi is disproportionate
to the moderate age-related parenchymal volume loss in the remainder of the
brain. No hippocampal signal abnormalities are seen. No other structural
abnormalities are seen.
IMPRESSION:
1. No evidence of a seizure focus on non-contrast MRI. No evidence for acute
intracranial abnormalities.
2. Severe, symmetric bilateral hippocampal volume loss is disproportionate to
the moderate age-related parenchymal volume loss in the remainder of the
brain. Please correlate with any memory problems.

COMPARISON: Outside hospital noncontrast CT C-spine ___.
FINDINGS:
In comparison brain CT of the cervical spine dated ___ from an
outside institution, there is grossly unchanged anterolisthesis of C6 with
respect to C7 measuring approximately 3-4 mm. Fracture through the left
inferior articular process of C6 is again seen (3:12, 13). The perched facet
at this level causes severe left-sided neural foraminal narrowing (05:29),
with a bone fragment projecting towards the lateral aspect of the thecal sac
(05:30), however, there is no evidence of spinal cord signal abnormality.
There is no significant central spinal canal stenosis. Ligament and
interspinous process edema is seen from C2-C3 through C7-T1 levels processes
on the left mild prevertebral edema is noted at the C7 level. There is
high-signal intensity at the endplates and middle aspect of T1, T2 and T3
vertebral bodies suggesting bone edema, the possibility of bone contusion
versus nondisplaced fractures at this levels is a consideration.
IMPRESSION:
1. Redemonstration of fracture through the left inferior articular process of
C6.
2. Left Perched facet at this level causes severe left-sided neural foraminal
narrowing. 3. Unchanged anterolisthesis at C6-C7 with no significant central
spinal canal narrowing or spinal cord signal abnormality.
4. Bone edema at the endplates and mid aspect of T1, T2 and T3 vertebral
bodies suggest bone contusion and possible nondisplaced fractures.

EXAMINATION: MRI PELVIS W/O CONTRAST
INDICATION: ___ with history of IVDU, HBV, HCV s/p Ribavirin/interferon in
___ in SVR, afib with atrial clot on xarelto (although not taking), chronic
pain on methadone prescribed by PCP, ___, CHF on lasix, CAD who
presents with altered mental status found to have infected ulcers on ___. He
was recently treated for left calcaneal osteo at CHA s/p resection and clean
margins. On exam he has deep ulcers at his coccyx and perianal region. //
Concerned for osteomyelitis at the coccyx
TECHNIQUE: Multiplanar images of the pelvis were performed without the
administration of intravenous contrast using a infection evaluation MR
protocol. Patient could not tolerate the entire exam. Contrast enhanced
images could not be obtained.
COMPARISON: No prior pelvic MRI available comparison. Left hip CT ___.
FINDINGS:
There is susceptibility artifact at both hips, compatible with previous
surgery. Mildly enlarged inguinal lymph nodes bilaterally measure 1.3 cm
short axis on the left, 1.1 cm on the right.
Diffuse muscle atrophy is seen.
Along the anterolateral border of the right psoas muscle at the level of the
iliac crest, there is a rounded focus of mixed signal abnormality measuring
3.1 by 2.2 cm. This is heterogeneous on T1 weighted imaging but largely T1
hyperintense. On STIR sequence, this lesion is centrally hyperintense,
peripherally hypointense. There is some retroperitoneal fat stranding on the
T1 weighted images surrounding this lesion.
There is subcutaneous edema in the lower posterior gluteal region. There is
also mild patchy muscle edema along the inferior medial aspect of the gluteus
maximus muscles, asymmetrically more marked on the right (series 4, image 31).
The sacral marrow signal is preserved with no evidence of edema or signal loss
on T1 weighted imaging. Mild cortical contour abnormality at the junction of
the S2 and S3 segments suggests prior injury. Degenerative changes at L5-S1
are seen.
There appears to be some edema of the scrotal soft tissues however this is
incompletely evaluated on this exam. Bilateral anterior gluteal subcutaneous
edema also noted.
IMPRESSION:
1. Limited exam as patient could not tolerate the entire study, including
omission of contrast-enhanced evaluation.
2. Soft tissue edema at the posterior lower gluteal region could reflect
cellulitis in this clinical setting. Edema of the adjacent gluteal
musculature which is more marked on the right could reflect myositis, and
early pyomyositis is not excluded. No large fluid collection is demonstrated,
however evaluation for microabscess formation is limits on noncontrast exam.
3. The sacrum and coccyx do not demonstrate evidence of osteomyelitis.
4. There is a right sided retroperitoneal ovoid area of signal abnormality
which is partly T1 hyperintense, suggestive of a retroperitoneal hematoma,
possibly nonacute.
5. Soft tissue edema in the scrotum, incompletely evaluated, recommend
clinical evaluation.
Recommendation: Consider further evaluation with contrast-enhanced CT which
may better depict the retroperitoneal lesion in addition to excluding small
rim enhancing foci of microabscess formation the right gluteal region.
NOTIFICATION: The findings were discussed with Dr ___, M.D. by ___
___, M.D. on the telephone on ___ at 6:10 ___, 10 minutes after
discovery of the findings.

INDICATION: ___ year old woman with fever, altered mental status // focal
consolidation review of OMR suggest additional history ofSLE, ESRD
COMPARISON: None.
FINDINGS:
There may be mild hyperinflation. Again seen is multi chamber cardiomegaly.
The aortic knob is calcified and calcifications in the upper extremity are
noted. There is upper zone redistribution, without overt CHF. Again seen is
linear atelectasis at the left lung base.
No focal infiltrate suggestive of pneumonia is identified. No pleural
effusions are seen. Slight asymmetry in the degree of hyperlucency of the
lungs, greater on the left, may be related to slight rotation. Mild
retraction of the minor fissure is noted, but no obvious right upper lobe
atelectasis is identified.
Of note, there is a rounded density measuring 16 mm in the right infrahilar
region. I suspect that this represents a nipple shadow. Equivocal rounded
density measuring approximately 14.5 mm overlying the right seventh anterior
rib was not seen on the ___ radiograph may be an artifact due to
overlap of rib shadows.
Rounded lucency in the left humeral head, suggestive of osteonecrosis.
IMPRESSION:
1. Multi chamber cardiomegaly, unchanged.
2. No focal infiltrate to suggest pneumonia identified.
3. Mild upper zone redistribution, without overt CHF.
4. Rounded densities in the right lower zone are thought to represent a nipple
shadow and artifact due to overlapping ribs. Consider repeat frontal
radiograph with nipple markers to confirm this.

200mcg of fentanyl and 3 mg of midazolam throughout the total intra-service
time of 65 minutes during which the patient's hemodynamic parameters were
continuously monitored by an independent trained radiology nurse. 1% lidocaine
was injected in the skin and subcutaneous tissues overlying the access site.
MEDICATIONS: Fentanyl and midazolam.
CONTRAST: 70 ml of optiray contrast.
FLUOROSCOPY TIME AND DOSE: 6.9 minutes, 8 mGy
PROCEDURE:
1. Left upper extremity AV fistulagram.
2. Complete fistulogram via a brachial vein approach, imaging from the
anastomosis to the right atrium.
3. Balloon angioplasty of the basilic, brachial and axillary vein stenoses
using 10, 12, and 12 mm balloon, respectively.
4. Post angioplasty fistulagram.
PROCEDURE DETAILS:
Written informed consent was obtained from the patient outlining the risks,
benefits and alternatives to the procedure. The patient was then brought to
the angiography suite and placed supine on the image table with the left upper
extremity abducted and stabilized.
Clinical examination demonstrated a palpable thrill over the left arm AV
fistula. Further evaluation by targeted ultrasound demonstrated a patent
fistula. The left upper extremity was prepped and draped in the usual sterile
fashion. A preprocedure timeout was performed as per ___ protocol.
Using ultrasound and fluoroscopy, the arterial inflow and outflow stent levels
were identified and the skin was marked with a skin marker. Following
administration of lidocaine antegrade (directed towards the venous outflow)
access was obtained using a 21G micropuncture needle. A 018 wire was then
advanced easily into the outflow vein under fluoroscopic guidance. A 4.5F
micropuncture sheath was advanced. A fistulagram was obtained through the
micropuncture sheath demonstrating moderate stenoses at the basilic, brachial,
and axillary veins. A glidewire was introduced and the micropuncture sheath
was exchanged for an 8 ___ sheath. A 12 mm balloon was introduced and
angioplasty was performed at the axillary and brachial veins. The balloon was
exchanged for a 10 mm balloon and angioplasty was performed at the basilic
vein. Fistulagram was performed 12 the balloon was inflated to delineate the
AV fistula anastomosis which was patent. The balloon was deflated and
removed. Post angioplasty fistulogram and venogram were performed
demonstrating no significant stenoses.
Clinical examination revealed a satisfactory thrill along the length of the
fistula and outflow vein. The Sheath was removed and hemostasis was achieved
with a ___ Ethilon pursestring suture. There were no immediate complications.
FINDINGS:
1. Fistulagram demonstrating moderate stenoses at the basilic, brachial, and
axillary veins. Patent AV fistula arterial anastomosis / inflow without

FINDINGS:
LOWER CHEST: Subsegmental atelectasis is noted in the left lung base (2:4).
There is no pleural or pericardial effusion. Dense calcifications are noted
in the Coronary arteries. There is a small hiatal hernia.
ABDOMEN:
HEPATOBILIARY: There is new widespread portal venous gas in the right and left
hepatic lobes compared to the prior study from ___ (2:7, 10, 16).
No focal lesion is identified in the liver. The patient is post
cholecystectomy, with unchanged mild central intrahepatic and extrahepatic
biliary ductal prominence. Along the inferior tip of the right hepatic lobe,
there is a dropped metallic surgical clip (02:19).
PANCREAS: The pancreas has normal attenuation throughout, without evidence of
focal lesions or pancreatic ductal dilatation. There is no peripancreatic
stranding.
SPLEEN: A 1.3 x 1.4 cm splenic hypodensity is unchanged compared to the prior
study, likely benign such as a hemangioma. Other dense calcifications within
the spleen may be partly vascular as the splenic artery is heavily calcified.
Prior granulomatous infection can also result in coarse splenic
calcifications. Multiple small accessory spleens are noted (2:23, 25).
ADRENALS: The right and left adrenal glands are normal in size and shape.
URINARY: The kidneys are atrophic bilaterally, with numerous small
hypodensities, too small to characterize but grossly unchanged. There is no
hydronephrosis or perinephric abnormality bilaterally. No renal mass is
identified.
GASTROINTESTINAL: There is diffuse wall thickening and edema throughout the
cecum and proximal ascending colon (___:19). Small foci of pneumatosis are
also noted in the cecum and ascending colon (02:50, 46). Also in the
ascending colon, there is focal lack of mucosal mucosal wall enhancement
(02:44) and air within adjacent mesenteric veins (02:40). Small bowel loops
demonstrate normal caliber, wall thickness, and enhancement throughout.
Numerous surgical clips are present about the cecal base in the right lower
quadrant (___:22), unchanged. Additionally, coarse calcifications along the
right pericolic gutter are unchanged (02:44).
PELVIS: The urinary bladder and distal ureters are unremarkable. There is no
free fluid in the pelvis.
LYMPH NODES: Retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy is again noted, measuring up to
1.1 x 2.0 cm in the right common iliac station (02:39), unchanged. There is
no pelvic or inguinal lymphadenopathy.
VASCULAR: The abdominal aorta and principal branch vessels are densely
calcified, including the bilateral renal arteries. The celiac trunk and its
branch vessels, as well as the superior mesenteric artery appear patent.
BONES: The bones are diffusely sclerotic, compatible with sequelae of renal
osteodystrophy. There is persistent grade anterolisthesis of L4 on 5. A
right hip total arthroplasty the is again seen. Densely sclerotic left
femoral head potentially represents avascular necrosis, although this is
somewhat difficult to ascertain given diffuse sclerotic appearance of osseous
structures elsewhere. There is no evidence of femoral head collapse.
Extensive subchondral cystic change is also noted at the left femoroacetabular
joint.
SOFT TISSUES: The abdominal and pelvic wall is within normal limits.
IMPRESSION:
1. New extensive portal venous gas and other findings are highly concerning
for bowel necrosis involving the cecum and ascending colon. In the setting of
extensive atherosclerotic disease, an ischemic cause is considered most
likely. However longstanding immunosuppression could contribute to an
infectious etiology such as typhlitis, given cecal and right colonic
distribution.
2. Bilateral atrophic kidneys and mild retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy are
unchanged compared to the prior study.
3. Diffuse osseous sclerosis is unchanged, reflecting the sequelae of renal
osteodystrophy.

There is no evidence of fluid collection around the graft to suggest infection
or abscess formation.
The graft is patent with peak flows ranging between 266 and 399
milliliters/minute.
Average peak systolic velocities throughout the graft and outflow vein range
between 42 and 173 cm/sec. A fairly high peak systolic velocity of 490 cm/sec
was seen at the level of the shoulder/axilla suggesting significant stenosis
in the outflow vein.
IMPRESSION:
1. No evidence of fluid collection or abscess around the graft.
2. Low-flow volumes and elevated peak systolic velocity in the outflow vein
suggestive of significant outflow vein stenosis
