I had to pull an all nighter last night & got zero sleep. will the sleep deprivation cause abnormalities on my mri i had today?white matter lesion?

One night is prob OK: While long-term sleep deprivation can be associated with structural brain changes (C. Liu et al., NeuroReport 2014 25(5):320-3), a single night is unlikely to alter the findings of a structural MRI study. … but it IS likely to alter measures of brain function.
