Brain MR: It is difficult to answer your question without looking at the entire MRI. Increased signal intensity on T2 and FLAIR means that there is a bright region within the right insular cortex, which usually means there is either fluid or less commonly blood product in this region, but this is nonspecific without knowing the findings on the rest of your MRI. Mucosal thickening=sinus walls inflamed.
