[|Human|] Sure!  An MRI on 7-10-13 indicated " ...persistent focal T2 signal hyperintensity within the left caudate nucleus and anterior limb of the internal capsule with corresponding susceptibility on the gradient sequence.  Findings suggest a small amount of hemosiderin of remote hemorrhage.  No evidence of acute hemorrhage...."   I do not recall everything the neurologist explained.  I was rear-ended in early March and hit my head on the top left side and had a goose egg for a few days.  I have been diagnosed with a concussion and my symptoms are related to focus and memory and "brain drain".  Can you educate me on the MRI indication?  Thank you!I do not wish to sign up for any fee.  Sorry, and thank you.
[|AI|]  HI, Thank for choosing Chat Doctor, The Hemosiderin is not an indication of fresh bleeding, this is one reason for not to worry, second it is direct indication of deposition of some residual elements after dying the red blood cells in case of rupture blood vessels and bleeding from it, in later stage the phagocytosis will play the role, once the phagocytosis start then the lesion will go away, in short right now nothing to worry, but close observation will be needed, you will have to go for MRI periodically, and discus it with your neurologist, Have good day.
