Q: few punctate t2, flair hyperintense signal seen bilateral subcortical white matter.does this correlate microvascular disease in brain?

: Could in older patient, but at age 17, unless you have a genetic disorder, such as homocystinuria, I would doubt it! More likely a sign of prior cigarette smoking, head trauma, and far less likely, prior infections and MS.
