...Porencephaly is a type of cephalic disorder involving encephalomalacia. This is an extremely rare disorder of the central nervous system involving a cyst or cavity in a cerebral hemisphere. The cysts or cavities are usually the remnants of destructive lesions, but are sometimes the result of abnormal development. The disorder can occur before or after birth. Read full entry

i already told about porencephaly the nanotechnology news Nanotechnology is a hybrid science combining engineering and chemistry. Atoms and molecules stick together because they have complementary shapes that lock together, or charges that attract. Just like with magnets, a positively charged atom will stick to a negatively charged atom. As millions of these atoms are pieced together by nanomachines, a specific product will begin to take shape. The goal of nanotechnology is to manipulate atoms individually and place them in a pattern to produce a desired structure. |

Porencephaly is an extremely rare disorder of the central nervous system involving cysts or cavities in a cerebral hemisphere. The cysts or cavities are usually the remnants of destructive lesions, but are sometimes the result of abnormal development. The disorder can occur before or after birth. Most infants show symptoms of the disorder shortly after birth. Diagnosis is usually made before age 1. Signs may include delayed growth and development, spastic paresis (slight or incomplete paralysis), hypotonia (low muscle tone), seizures (often infantile spasms), and macrocephaly (large head) or microcephaly (small head). |

Can someone who knows the Thanks in advance. This stuff
is from an old MRI report of
mine.
First one:
There is thinning of the left
temporoparietal white matter
with prominence of the left
occipital trigone. Sagittal
images show thinning of the
posterior body of the corpus
callosum.
Second one:
Mild porencephaly of the left
occipital trigone with
thinning of the adjacent white
matter mantle. There is mild
associated atrophy of the
posterior portion of the body
of the corpus callosum.

both the reports are the same either taken in different times or by different person. radiology reports need to be correlated with the clinical features and patient profile. if you are aged, then the MRI is probably normal showing age related degenerations and atrophy. if you arfe young..it could be many pathologic and physiologic( variants of normal) changes. as in demyelinating diseases, raised Intra cranial pressure, obstuctive hydrocephalus, small meningioma. again u need to correlate with symptoms ans signs |
