What else can I help you with?
Few small ill defined irregular t2 flair hyperintensities subcortical white matter of bilateral frontal lobes ischemic demyelination is likely?
What treatment to be given in this case
What does low density area in subcortical white matter of left posterior parietal lobe mean?
A low density area in the subcortical white matter of the left posterior parietal lobe could indicate a region of decreased cellularity or myelin loss. This may be associated with conditions such as demyelinating diseases, vascular damage, or other pathologies affecting the white matter in that specific brain region. Further investigation with clinical correlation is necessary to determine the underlying cause.
What if your MRI scanned frontal and parietal white matter T2 hyperintensities what does this mean?
my husband has t2 intense foci in the subcortical white matter in the frontal and parietal reigon these are compatible with foci of chronic ischaemic change the finding is related to small vessel disease his mood swings are getting worse would this disease be a part of mood swings.
What does it mean the brain parenchyma shows periventricular T2 hyperintensity and a few scattered subcortical foci of increased T2 and flair signal intensity in the frontal lobes that are nonspecifi?
what does this mean? Impression: There are scattered foci of T2/FLAIR hyperintensity within the periventricular, deep and subcortical white matter. The findings are nonspecific but may be seen in mild to moderate small vessel ischemic changes. No evidence for acute infarct or hemorrhage.
What is the ICD-10 code for periventricular white matter lesion?
The ICD-10 code for periventricular white matter lesion is I69.819.
What does hyperintense signals in the bifrontal subcortical white matter mean?
Hyperintense signals in the bifrontal subcortical white matter on MRI can indicate various conditions such as small vessel ischemic disease, demyelination, or inflammation. Further evaluation and clinical correlation are necessary to determine the underlying cause.
Where is the periventricular and subcortical white matter of both cerebral hemispheres?
The periventricular white matter is located around the ventricles of the brain, primarily surrounding the lateral ventricles, while the subcortical white matter is found beneath the cerebral cortex of both cerebral hemispheres. These regions are crucial for communication between different brain areas, facilitating the transmission of signals. The periventricular white matter contains important pathways involved in various functions, whereas the subcortical white matter connects cortical areas with deeper structures and plays a role in motor control and cognitive processing.
If decorticate posturing is present the lesion is?
Anatomic location of the lesion would be below the cortex, in the white matter or the cerebral hemispheres or upper part of the brain stem.
What is multiple small hypo densities seen in bilateral fronto-parietal subcortical and periventricular white matter?
Small hypo densities are seen in bilatereral para ventricular region
What are the Functions of subcortical region of brain?
Cortical is a word referring to the cortex, so the subcortical region of the brain is literally 'anything beneath the cortex'; but, since the brain isn't arranged in flat layers, it may be easier to visualise this analogy: If you picture the brain as being half an orange, the outer skin (the zest) would equate to the grey matter of cerebral cortex, & the inner skin (the pith) to the white matter; everything else (the pulp & the pips of the orange) represents the subcortical structures, which include various ventricles & nuclei, the thalamus, hypothalamus, cerebellum, & the parts that make up the brainstem. Subcortical pathways enable fast, unconscious reactions; so a reflex is a subcortical action.
Are the limbic and subcortical regions of the brain the same?
'Subcortical structures' are areas of the brain below the cortex, which is the outermost layer (i.e., the grey matter). The limbic system is one example of a subcortical structure - although technically it isn't just one structure. The limbic system actually consists of a number of key areas related to sensory integration, learning, memory, emotionality, and decision-making. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limbic_system
What is the Gray matter that resembles the upper wings of a butterfly in spinal cord cross section?
Posterior Horns.
