A member asked:
What is mild severity deep white matter microangiopathic disease? what does it mean for a 38 year old when it is on an mri record?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
This description of white matter lesions is far from specific and vascular disease is but one explanation. Others include prior head injury, smoking, migraine headaches, hypertension, even demyelinating disorders, amongst several. Contact your doctor and discuss these results and the correlation with your health.
