Hello,
The CT brain findings are not serious. Diffuse cerebral atrophy means shrinkage of the brain, which is a normal process due to aging. Therefore, there is no need to worry about this finding.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Sudhir Kumar, Neurologist
