Muscle weakness (generalized) [728.87], Reason for Study: ^Reason: STROKE History: LEFT WEAKNESS There is no evidence of acute ischemic or hemorrhagic lesion on the scan.There are multiple white matter lesions with tissue loss involving right basal ganglia, left side of corpus callosum and left periventricular white matter. These lesions are non specific with uncertain etiology but can be related to white matter disease or multifocal ischemic infarction.The ventricles, sulci and cisterns are symmetric and unremarkable. There is no mass, mass effect, edema, midline shift, intra or extra-axial fluid collection/hemorrhage, or restricted diffusion/acute ischemia. The midline structures and cranial-cervical junction are normal. Normal flow voids are identified in the major intracranial vessels. The paranasal sinuses and mastoid air cells are clear.
1. No evidence of acute ischemic or hemorrhagic lesion.2. Multifocal white matter lesions with tissue losses as described above. Possible etiology include white matter disease such as demyelination process and multifocal chronic ischemic infarctions.
