A member asked:
Just had a mri on brain it says i have a venous differential adnormality in opptiucal lobe what could this mean not there 8months ago?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
My guess: My guess is a "developmental venous anomaly of the occipital lobe". If that is the case, then it is an abnormality of a vein in the brain which frequently is an incidental finding. Best of luck, Dr. Ayman Omar
