Interpret this MRI
This is an MRI report, not the actual scan images. Here is a plain-language interpretation of what the radiologist found:
MRI Report Summary
Patient: Dr. Anupam Singh, 33-year-old male
Study: MRI of the Brain (Cranium) + Screening of the Whole Spine
Date: July 10, 2026
Reporting Radiologist: Dr. Peeyush Agarwal, MBBS, DMRD
What Was Scanned & How
- Brain MRI on a 1.5 Tesla machine using a 16-channel neuro-vascular array
- Sequences included: ADC, Diffusion (DWI), GRE, T1, T2, FLAIR (axial + coronal), and T2 sagittal
- The SWAN sequence (Susceptibility Weighted Angiography) was also used - this is specifically sensitive for detecting microbleeds, iron deposits, or venous abnormalities
Findings - Brain
| Structure | Finding |
|---|---|
| Cerebral gray & white matter | Normal signal on T1 and T2 |
| Basal ganglia, thalami | No abnormality |
| Brain stem & cerebellum | No abnormality |
| Ventricular system | Normal size and morphology |
| Sylvian fissures & cisterns | Normal |
| Sulcal spaces (cortical surface) | Normal |
| Midline | No shift |
| Pituitary gland & sella | Normal |
| Orbits | Normal |
Findings - Spine
- Sagittal screening through the cervical, thoracic, and lumbosacral spine shows no significant disc protrusion or extrusion at any level
Impression
Normal MRI study of the brain and spine.
No structural abnormality, no mass lesion, no infarct, no bleed, no disc herniation.
What This Means Practically
- The brain and spine appear structurally healthy on MRI
- If the patient has symptoms (headache, neurological complaints, back pain, etc.), this result is reassuring - it rules out major structural causes
- However, MRI has limitations - for example, very early ischemic changes, small cortical lesions, or functional disorders may not always appear on standard sequences
- The report itself notes: "Please correlate clinically and with other relevant investigations" - meaning the radiologist recommends that findings be interpreted alongside the patient's symptoms and other test results
- The report also carries a standard disclaimer that it is not valid for medico-legal purposes
Bottom line: This is a completely normal brain and spine MRI for a 33-year-old male. No significant pathology was detected.
