Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
MRI Shows Abnormal FLAIR Signal On Sagittal FLAIR Imaging Demonstrating Perpendicular Appearance Relative To Posterior Horm Of Left Lateral Ventricle. Indications?
My MRI showed the following: a few foci of FLAIR signal abnormality in the centrum semiovale as well as in the left posterior periventricular white matter . One such area of abnormal FLAIR signal on sagittal FLAIR imaging demonstrates a perpendicular appearance relative to the posterior horm of the left lateral ventricle .
They mean increased intensity of the white matter – indicating degeneration, demyelination , vascular insult on so on. FLAIR is Fluid Attenuated Inversion Recovery and it is a technique to suppress the signal from fluids like cerebro spinal fluid (CSF) so as to enhance a lesion... The final interpretation depends on correlation with the clinical details...
Take care Wishing speedy recovery God bless Good luck
