There are no MRI findings associated with [disease name].
OR
[Location] MRI may be helpful in the diagnosis of [disease name]. Findings on MRI suggestive of/diagnostic of [disease name] include [finding 1], [finding 2], and [finding 3].

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 may be helpful in the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease. Findings on MRI in an elderly patient with memory loss demonstrates cerebral volume loss, particularly pronounced in the temporal and parietal lobes, consistent with the clinical impression of Alzheimer disease.
- Multiple white matter T2 hyperintense regions are suggestive of chronic small vessel ischemic change.
