What Does This Spinal MRI Test Result Indicate?
My MRI Conclusion: 1. Small (approximately 1.5cm) are of subcortical gliosis involving the left superior parietal lobule most likely from remote infarction. 2. Several scattered punctate foci of increased T2 and FLAIR weighted signal typical of early chronic small vessel ischemic disease. What does this mean? Thank you in advance for your help.

Dear patient
your mri is of Brain region and not spine. human brain is divided into four lobes and parietal lobe is one of them. your report suggests old infarct in parietal area and subsequent fibrosis in same area. there are also multiple small infarct of recent origin which might be because of pathology in small brain vessels. what is your age? always mention age and complaints. I would advise visit to neurologist for further management. thanks.
