Yes, T2 and FLAIR signal hyperintensities are typically associated with white matter abnormalities in the brain. These hyperintensities can be seen in various conditions such as aging, vascular changes, inflammation, or demyelination. They can be important markers for diagnosing and monitoring neurological conditions.
Supratentorial white matter disease refers to abnormalities or damage affecting the white matter in the cerebrum (the largest part of the brain located above the tentorium cerebelli). This condition can lead to various neurological symptoms depending on the extent and location of the damage, such as difficulties with cognition, motor function, or sensory processing.
What treatment to be given in this case
what does this mean? Impression: There are scattered foci of T2/FLAIR hyperintensity within the periventricular, deep and subcortical white matter. The findings are nonspecific but may be seen in mild to moderate small vessel ischemic changes. No evidence for acute infarct or hemorrhage.
Light can pass through matter that is transparent, but still be scattered if the matter is not completely uniform or smooth. Examples include frosted glass, wax paper, and frosted plastics.
It can be: -absorbed -reflected -refracted (scattered)
Dark matter is matter that is inferred to exist from gravitational effects on visible matter and background radiation, but is undetectable by emitted or scattered electromagnetic radiation.
Transparent?
It's not a matter of duration, but a probability of occurrence. Isolated means about a 20% chance, while scattered, I believe, includes probabilities up to 50%.
it is made out of small molecules. Solid had molecules packed like sardines, liquid had the molecules been scattered abit, while gas molecules is scattered alot around.
The term that describes matter that allows light to pass through without being scattered is transparent. Transparent materials are those that allow light to pass through them without significant distortion.
my husband has t2 intense foci in the subcortical white matter in the frontal and parietal reigon these are compatible with foci of chronic ischaemic change the finding is related to small vessel disease his mood swings are getting worse would this disease be a part of mood swings.
