White matterMRI: This means that it is likely that you have a microvascular problem most likely high blood pressure that is knocking off part of your brain. Discuss with the Dr who ordered it as they know such things as your BP and many other factors that could be involved. I do not. But am available for consult.

Age related : All of this is of limited correlation due mainly age related findings which are nonspecific and far from common. Discuss further with the radiologist
