Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.

Those changes found on MRI correspond to chronic brain tissue damage from high blood pressure for a long time.

Those changes are not reversible but progression could be stopped by good control of blood pressure.

There is no treatment for this condition.

Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.
