Answers to your question are stored in our HT archives but will be repeated here yet again. The findings must be clinically correlated and in essence, are nondiagnostic and non-specific. This could be due to migraine, smoking, recreational drugs, prior head injury, aging, demyelination, and microvascular angiopathy, to mention a few.
