MRI RESULTS

Hello:

I recently have a brain MRI and this was one of the findings.. I am wondering if anyone can shed any light on what it means.

"Mild left mastoid air cell inflammatory changes are identified."

Thanks!

Hello and hope you are doing well.

Mastoid is a bone which is located just behind the external ear. This gets inflamed if infections from the middle ear spread to this bone. This usually happens with middle ear infections. So, have yourself evaluated for the same.

Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
