Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM

Your MRI report suggest that you have T2 hyperintensties in above mentioned part of brain and it is two in number. It can be considered as non significant.
If it would be more in number then it might be considered as significant.
It is due to ischemic changes and is due to small vessel involvement.
You should consult neurologist and take medicines to prevent further damage to brain.
Mild diffuse cerebral atrophy is age related findings. Cerebral atrophy do occur due to other reasons also.
Other findings are normal.
Get well soon.

Take Care
