TECHNIQUE:
Multiple axial CT images of the brain without contrast were obtained using the standard department
protocol.
FINDINGS:
There is an area of hypodensity in the right thalamoganglionic region.
A small hypodense focus is seen in the left corona radiata.
There is a slit-like hypodensity with similar attenuation to CSF in the right external capsule associated
with mild ex-vacuo dilation of the right lateral ventricle.
No demonstrable extra-axial fluid collection noted.
The gray-white matter interface is intact.
No midline shifting seen.
Calcifications are noted in the vertebro-basilar and cavernous segment of bilateral internal carotid
arteries.
Visualized posterior fossa structures, pineal region, orbits, petromastoids, paranasal sinuses and bony
calvarium are intact.
IMPRESSION:
Acute infarction, right thalamoganglionic region
Chronic lacunar infarction, left corona radiata
Encephalamalacic changes in the right external capsule probably from previous parenchymal insult, ie.
bleed.
Internal carotid and vertebro-basilar atherosclerosis
