Hello and welcome to HCM,
The radiology report shows that the ventricles of brain are normal.
There is no distention or overfilling of the ventricles.
There is one focus showing calcification.
Calcification is deposition of calcium salts.
This calcification can be around some cyst, in blood vessel or in the brain parenchyma.
You need to get some more investigations to know the cause of calcification.

Thanks and take care
