What Causes Cognitive Impairment And Poor Memory?

I am a 67 year old female. Had a MRI Brain Scan two weeks ago where they indicate that my brain is atrophying quicker than It should be for a woman my age. Wondering what this can lead to or what does this tell the medical staff right now? I seem to be experiencing some symptoms of mild cognitive impairment such as not remembering how to get from point A to point B on the freeways, not remembering new information presented to me at work.The list can go on...........Thank you in advance for your kind assistance.
