There are no MRI findings associated with [disease name]. However, a MRI may be helpful in the diagnosis of complications of [disease name], which include [complication 1], [complication 2], and [complication 3].
MRI
- MRI shows an empty sella, in chronic cases of Sheehan's syndrome.[1][2][3]
- It can also show decreased sellar volume, pituitary remnant tissue or CSF fluid in sella.
- It is done to exclude any pituitary mass.
MRI
- early
- enlarged pituitary, with low T1, high T2 homogenous signal
- ring enhancement
- late
- empty sella of normal size
