Hello.
Thankyou for contacting HCM.
This MRI reports normal findings for your father's age. All these findings are basically age related changes and develop due to loss of brain tissue and microangiopathic changes. These are non reversible. No need to worry or do anything about them.
I hope this answers your query. Please feel free to contact HCM again if you have any concerns.
Wishing you good health.
