Hello dr. i just had a cervical mri & it noted a small area of encephalomalacia in my left cerebellum. i have not suffered a stroke nor head injury?

That you know of: but I would follow up with the doctor to see what this might be related to. Or if the reading is accurate. There is a difference on radiology readings between the words "possible" "probable" etc, you get the idea.
