Old Brain MRI Results

Hi, I had a MRI and years later I found this in my record.

mild to moderate dilation of the right lateral ventricle including the temporal horn

What can this cause? and could this be the cause of my headaches (I get migraines, cluster and some other type, throbling on the right side of my head?)  memory loss? maybe bi-polarness?


Thank you so much in advance.

I found this on a website:

"The volume of the lateral ventricles are known to increase with age. They are also enlarged in a number of neurological conditions and are on average larger in patients with schizophrenia  [1], bipolar disorder.[2], and Alzheimer's disease. [3]."
