I need help to understand my Brain MRI please

[ziba21]

Two mounths ago I got the open brain MRI result saying that I have several nonspesific punctuate flair within both frontoperital lobs primerly peripheral in distribution.

My age is 37 and the radiologist stated that in my age this findings are atypical.

In the impression he added this

Tiny scattered frontoperital flair hyperintensities are distributed largely peripheral. In this pationet with this age with this MRI it could be due to variety of etiologies. Such as inflammation, vascular, demyelinating and not completely excluding Vasculities.

Thank you

Hello.
You have what is called a non-specific finding. I am only a patient, but the causes for the "hyperintensities" also known as white matter disease, can be from so many causes from migraines to high blood pressure up to MS. So you have to work with your neurologist now to determine the cause and go from there.
I hope this helps.
