Altered mental status [780.97], Reason for Study: ^Reason: ischemia, right arm weakness and confusion History: as above There are restricted diffusion lesions on the right inferior parietal lobule without evidence of hemorrhagic transformation indicating acute/subacute ischemic infarction.Punctate right frontal superior frontal gyrus is non specific, indicating possible calcification or chronic blood product including small cavernous malformation.Although thick (4mm) slice thickness, the full length of the right MCA M1 segment was not clearly demonstrated. Thus, brain MRA or CTA can be considered for further imaging evaluation.The ventricles, sulci and cisterns are symmetric and unremarkable. 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.
Acute/Subacute ischemic infarction on the right inferior parietal lobule without hemorrhagic transformation as described above.Brain MRA or CTA can be considered for intracranial vascular evaluation.
