Im 61 year male and had MRI for dizziness.  Findings are consistent with mild microvasular disease with a tiny old infarct of the left corona radiata that is likely of the same etiology. (diabetic for 46 years) What does this mild microvasular disease and how serious or is this normar for my age.
HelloSign microvascular disease may be indicated as ischemic changes(due to compromised blood supply). These are generally due to involvement of small blood vessels. It is generally due to conditions like hypertension, diabetes mellitus, altered lipid profile etc. So, you may need clinical correlation and screening for these conditions. This is not a very serious finding, and it only needs treatment of underlying cause. It is seen more with aging. Get well soon. Take Care Chat Doctor.
