 There is mildly decreased diffusion and T2 hyperintensity within the corticospinal tracts of the pons. There are no additional areas of abnormal parenchymal signal. The ventricles and basal cisterns are normal in size and configuration. There is no midline shift or herniation. There is a partially empty sella.
Limited examination terminated early by the patient reveals nonspecific mild diffusion restriction and edema within the corticospinal tracts of the pons of uncertain etiology and significance, although this is an area prone to artifact and correlation with patient symptomatology recommended for confirmation
