Hello,
The report indirectly says that the patient is suffering from multiple infarcts in the frontal.
Obviously these infarcts lead to shrinkage of white brain with ventricular dilatation. So if you're hypertensive, get treated accordingly.
Please consult your neurophysician, he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
