Can Any Online Doctor Provide An Opinion On The MRI Of My Brain?
I had a MRI recently on my brain without contrast, this was in my report, can you tell me your opinion ?
No restricted diffusion. Diffuse subcortical and periventricular
microangiopathic changes. There is a small focus of extra-axial FLAIR
hyperintensity in the left frontal region. No hydrocephalus, midline shift, or
extra-axial collection. There is no accentuated or lobar volume loss. Larger
intracranial vascular flow voids are preserved. No volume loss or signal
changes in the hippocampal formations. Partially empty configuration of the
sella. Paranasal sinuses and mastoid air cells are clear. Normal marrow signal
intensity in the calvarium and skull base.

The MRI says that there are periventricular changes. This means that few regions of your brain have less blood supply and there is also a lesion in the left side of the brain inside the forehead region
