Consult with neuro: It is always important to make a correlation with the symptoms you are presenting, if any. Also a visit with a specialist or your primary care physician would be ideal. This results might be benign incidental changes, for us to know we need to acknowledge the reason the MRI was done. You should return with your results to the physician that ordered that MRI. Hope this helps :)
