A member asked:
My brain ct small hypodense leison is seeing in right frontal perafalcin region suggestive of glicosis, what to do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Gliosis: is an area of scarring or damage from a prior injury or insult to the brain. It is not reversible. It may not be relevant to whatever your current symptoms are, but your doctor needs to correlate. You may need an MRI to confirm it is gliosis and not another process.
