Evidence of cerebral metastases?
Layers and layer sequences:
Sagittal FLAIR / axial T1-T2-T1 Gd + / TOF FISP3D angiography sequence with subsequent
MIP reconstruction / diffusion-weighted imaging / cor T1 Gd +
Findings:
Symmetrical, appropriate for age-wide ventricles.
Usually right Hirnwindungsrelief.
MRI and MRA of the skull
No abnormal signal in the white matter alterations.
No suspicious contrast enhancement.
Cerebellum, the cerebellopontine angle region and brainstem normal.
Basal ganglia, thalamus and internal capsule on both sides also unremarkable.
Pituitary or sellar region inconspicuous.
Literally pictured with paranasal sinuses, orbits and mastoid air cells. Appears normal arterial vascular structures in MRA.
No evidence of diffusion restriction.
Assessment:
Age According unobtrusive presentation of the neurocranium.
No tumor criteria.
No acute inflammatory changes.
No sign of a fresh ischemia.
No blood evidence.
No vascular malformation.
