Hello,

MRI brain shows presence of foci of demyelination in brain white matter. Demyelination is suggestive of multiple sclerosis. I suggest you to consult a neurologist for clinical assessment and thus management.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Shailja Puri
