Male, 83 years old, with cognitive impairment. Fairly extensive patchy periventricular and subcortical FLAIR hyperintensity is seen. Lesions are also evident within the pons. No restricted diffusion, edema or mass effect is observed. There are no findings to suggest acute intracranial hemorrhage. A focus of susceptibility within the right superior cerebellum likely reflects chronic hemosiderin deposition. No abnormal extra-axial fluid collections are seen. There appears to be a developmental venous anomaly traversing the right cerebellum. Ventricular size morphology are within normal limits. Brain parenchymal volume is generally well preserved.
1.No acute intracranial abnormality.2.Findings compatible with moderately extensive chronic microvascular ischemia.
