Diagnosis

Sample Report
A small area of hypoattenuation in the left subinsular white matter likely represents a dilated perivascular space or chronic infarct. However, MRI brain with and without contrast should be considered for further evaluation if there is ongoing clinical concern for acute intracranial pathology.
