Brief Answer:
NOT TO WORRY AT ALL IF YOU ARE SYMPTOM-FREE!

Detailed Answer:
Hi, dear visitor,

I would like to know the age, sex, clinical symptoms, blood reports and chest x-ray findings also, before a final comment!

You possibly got a recent brain scan that revealed 'a calcified lesion in left high parietal region-s/o old healed granuloma...'; in fact this finding indicates some old healed disease rather than an active lesion and the possibilities are tuberculosis or a parasitic cyst that resolved itself thanks to your body's good immunity power!

Therefore I don't think it to be any serious problem to your brain!

Awaiting feedback from your side; regards,
