Ischemic hypoxic encephalopathy (MR).

POST CARDIAC ARREST CASE.

PROTOCOL:

T1W – Sagittal & axial scans
T2W – Axial & coronal scans
FLAIR – Axial scans 

FINDINGS:

-Revealed:
• Emergency report done.
• Multiple gyral hyper intensities in almost all brain cortexes.
• Bilateral symmetrical basal ganglia hyper intensities (all these changes are better seen on diffusion images).
• Normal morphology of MR angiography.
• Normal morphology of MR venography.

-Lateral and third ventricles are normal in size and position. Septum is in midline.  There is no midline shift.
-Basal cisterns, cortical sulci and gyri are normal in appearance.
-Corpus callosum shows normal MR morphology.
-Brain stem and cerebellum show normal signal intensities.  
-Fourth ventricle is normal in size and is midline in position.


OPINION:

• Picture is suggestive of ischemic hypoxic encephalopathy for clinical correlation.
