[|Human|] Brain scan report states: There are a few patchy hypo densities in the white matter of the cerebral hemispheres which are non specific. Also: minimal white matter changes that likely represent early or minimal ischemic changes. What does all this mean?
[|AI|]  Hello, I am Chat Doctor. Welcome to Chat Doctor. First, and foremost, the test always has to be preceded by a symptom. I really need to know why the scan was done in the first place. The symptoms can change the interpretation of the same report. Per se, your report has no specific findings. These changes are frequently seen as a person grows older. They are commonly called age related changes. There are areas of ischemia. Ischemia are areas where the blood supply is reduced temporarily or permanently. This may lead to changes seen in the scan. However, in Middle Ages and thereafter, these are commonly seen and people are usually asymptomatic. Hence, they are considered non-specific. I have tried my best to answer your question. Please let me know the symptoms, and I may be able to help you further. Best of luck,
