Do I Have MS If I Have Dawson S Fingers Perpendicular To Corpus Callosum?
My MRI of the brain findings read: generalized volume loss is demonstrated with prominence of the sulci, most prominently at the convexity. Otherwise, the basilar cisterns, ventricles, and sulci are unremarkable. Focal and confluent areas of hyperintense T2/FLAIR signal are seen in the pericentricular deep and subcortical white matter that are nonspecific in nature and could be related to microvascular disease; however, other etiologies cannot be excluded. I can see 2 and one half Dawson s fingers perpendicular to the corpus callosum. Do I have MS?
there are many differentials for such MRI findings including MS. But this MRI is not satisfying radiological criteria of MRI. Anyway diagnosis of MS also depends upon clinical attacks....in ur case it can be labelled as RIS ( radiological isolated syndrome.) If ur asymptomatic. ...then I would suggest followup MRI after 6 month with contrast......and look for any progression...
regards.
