[|AI|]  Hi, Thank you for posting your query. I have noted that your wives MRI brain report has shown features of white matter disease. White matter disease in brain is usually due to reduced blood flow to the brain. In her case, it is most likely due to her high cholesterol and high blood pressure. Treatment consists of using blood thinners such as aspirin, and controlling the risk factors (high cholesterol and blood pressure in her case). There is no need to worry, as she would improve with proper treatment. I hope it helps. Please get back if you require any additional information. Best wishes, Chat Doctor. Ly/
