[|Human|] I was advised by  Neurologist to carry out MRI of brain and MRI REPORT OF BRAIN FEW T2 AND FLAIR WEIGHTED HYPERINTENSITIES ARE SEEN IN DEEP WHITE MATTER OF BILATERAL FRONTAL LOBE IN HIGHER SECTION LIKELY CHRONIC ISCHEMIC FOCIPlease explain me the disease in detail.ThanksI DR V K JAIN,  (PROFESSOR CHEMISTRY) AGE 51 YEARS
[|AI|]  Hi White matter Hyper intensities(WMH) of brain indicate either ischemia or dementia. They usually represent small vessel disease. They are also useful to assess effectiveness of treatment They are associated with frontal hypometabolism and executive dysfunction.WMH have a stronger effect on glucose metabolism in that region and cortical atrophy, Frontal WMH was associated with memory dysfunction in nondemented subjects. They are more likely to occur in bipolar disorder and major depressive disorder. So I hope this answers your query and if you have any further queries, you can ask us.
