A member asked:
Superficial left pontine tegmentum tiny 3 mm t2 hyperintensity in keeping with a perivascular space on mri. could this be from a stroke?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stroke : Not to worry. Perivascular spaces (Virchow-Robin spaces) are normal and not caused by a stroke. They can occur throughout the brain. The perivascular spaces vary in size (up to 5 mm) and are associated with arteries in the brain.
