[|Human|] I recently had a CT of the brain and the report stated "mild nonspecific patchy areas of hypoattenuation in the periventricular subcortical white matter, likely sequel from chronic ischemic microangiopathy"   I understand that the small blood vessels in my brain are restricted and insufficient blood is reaching the brain tissues. . .What caused this; what can I do to reverse this situation.  I am 65 in good health but with high blood pressure which is controlled.
[|AI|]  Hi, Thank you for posting your query. I have gone through the CT scan report provided by you. These findings are suggestive of small areas of blood clots, where the blood supply is less. These are most likely related to your high blood pressure. In addition, you need to get screened for high blood sugar, cholesterol and homocysteine. If any of them are elevated, then, appropriate medicines may be required. In addition, you should also take aspirin tablets to make sure that the ischemia (lack of blood flow) of brain does not increase. I hope it helps. Please get back if you require any further information. Best wishes, Chat Doctor. Ly/
