The term...: ..."abnormalities in the brain" is too vague to be defined. The doctor who told you this should be able to tell you what s/he means. Chromosome segments are sometimes found to be missing. This can sometimes be associated with specific kinds of abnormalities. In any case, the doctor who told you these things should be the one fully explaining them to you.
