What Does The MRI Report Mean?
MRI Report
Can you tell me what this all means and is it something to be concerned about?
Multiple tiny areas of punctate gradient signal hypointensity within the left cerebellum and also dorsal left pons. Some of these areas are calcified on the recent CT. Gradient signal hyperintensity may correspond to the presence of calcification. Some lesions demonstrate blooming consistent with blood products. These leasions are predominately rounded and well circumscribed and may represent MULTIPLE SMALL CAVERNOUS HEMANGIOMAS. No flow voids are noted to suggest an AVM. Some lesions are surrounded by T2 signal hyperintentensity which may realte to mild edem. This is most notable in the left anterior and lateral aspec of the cerebellar hemisphere and posterior inferior left cerebellum. No significant mass effect.
