impression:  no acute intracranial abnormality identified
Findings: there is a developmental anomaly in the right frontal periventricular white matter.  no mass or mass effect.  no midline shift.  no foci of restricted diffusion.

Sorry, I can't answer your question. But I did paste the statement [developmental anomaly in the right frontal periventricular white matter] into google. A few sites
came up that give a general idea what they are talking about.

Hope that helps some.... If not just know my heart goes out to you.
