Hi,
It means blood circulation is normal in the brain however small lesion is present which may be early sign of MS or can be space occupying lesion. It may need to be evaluated by a neurosurgeon with films to see if any surgical intervention is required or not.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Saddiq Ulabidin, General & Family Physician
