Mild scattered punctate matter foci abnormalities . is this bad after slip and fall accident resulting in 10 staples back of head. poo st concussion ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Incidental finding: The white matter changes are not related to your head concussion, they are rather chronic and have to be interpreted in the clinical context. Talk to your doc at follow up about the results and try to recall any unexplained symptoms (if any), in trying to determine if they are of clinical significance.
