What Does this MRI Scan Result Mean?
brain MRI result says Located within head of left caudate nucleus adjacent to the anterior horn of left ventrical is a 6mm X 4mm diameter T2 hyperintense cystic area with surrounding T2 hyperintense white matter signal. May represent a small lacune rather than a VR space. The phrase cystic area needs clarifying please. Does this lacune represent a stroke or something else ?

Hello,
There is a small cystic lesion in your brain. It is unlikely to be a cancerous lesion and probably be an old lesion. Consult a neurologist and he will direct you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
