I had an MRI of the brain from my mother who is 71 and the report states
Hello, These MRI findings indicate chronic changes in the small vessels of the brain, which have lead to small strokes, causing troubles with memory. It is a progressive disorder, and can not be treated properly. The main therapy is daily baby aspirin and maintaining under control her blood pressure values, her blood lipid profile and diabetes (if she suffers from these disorders). Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
