32yof-in the subcortical and periventricular white matter of the cerebral hemispheres bilaterally there are multiple small t2/flair hyperintense lesion without diffusion restriction. the lesions are small without specific morphology. nocentralvein?

: The described images are nonspecific but could correlate with migraine, smoking, prior head injury, a demyelinating disorder, microvascular angiopathy, etc. Since you mention "central vein", suspect your doctor ponders MS, and maybe a spinal cord MRI is the next step.
