It’s impossible to interpret images without obtaining the full clinical context. It would be best to check in with your pediatrician, while rescheduling with your neurosurgeon.

Would strongly urge further discussion with your neurosurgeon, as it appears that she has some knowledge regarding the situation. Here at HT, we might be able to analyze the situation via a virtual consult (www.connect@healthtap.com), but have films available if you choose this path.
