MRI of brain tumor with Indian accent - Lindey


Posted: May 15, 2011

Any help is appreciated.  I'm stuck on 2 words.

1. Sagittal T1-weighted images were followed by axial proton density and T2-weighted images.  Subsequently, formal T1-weighted images were followed by postgadolinium.

2. On the nongadolinium enhanced T2-weighted images, increase signal is identified within the left sphenoid sinus.  This is probably related to a transphenodial pituitary; this concession in this patient.

I know these aren't the correct words but they sound like them.

Thanks

1. coronal T1-weighted.

2. increase(d) signal

transpheno(i)dal resection.

Signal is increased not increase and transphenoidal not transphenodial.

Hope that helps!

Thanks - Lindey

Dear Lindey: Listen for "coronal" T1-weighted images...

Thanks - Lindey

Thanks!

This is probably related to a transsphenoidal pituitary resection in this patient - instead of pituitary; this concession in this pati

Tumor Marker Question
Nov 14, 2012

Dictated "CEA was elevated at 29, CA 15.3 at 1938, and CA 27.29 was elevated at the outset at 2243." My questions are regarding the CA 15.3 of "1938" and the CA 27.29 of "2243." Should they be "19.38" and "22.43" or "1938" and "2243"? When I'm googling the reference ranges for CA 15.3, a value of 19.38 doesn't seem to be elevated; neither does a value of 22.43 for CA 27.29. But.. 1938 and 2243 seem awfully high. Can someone please help me with this? Thanks!!! ...
