Sagittal T1

The MRI sequences demonstrate:

diffuse thinning of the corpus callosum
parallel bodies of the lateral ventricles
dilatation of the trigones and occipital horns mainly on the right (colpocephaly) giving a "teardrop" configuration on axial sequences
small frontal horns
widening of the interhemispheric fissure
dilated high-riding 3rd ventricle
sunray appearance of the gyri on the sagittal T1
dilated superior ceebellar cistern

Note right ocular prosthesis.
