Does anyone know the significance of "prominent perivascular spaces"? I got my MRI report today and in addition to some other stuff, it says:
"The areas of high intensity higher up near the vertex on either side are more in favor of prominent perivascular spaces."
??? Is anyone familiar with such a thing??? I will review with my neuro next week, but you know, it's nice to have a little understanding first before going into those discussions.
The report also talks about an area of increased intensity opposite C6 "but not typical of MS nodules." I am going back for further imaging of this area, as well as of my T-spine, which has never been imaged.
The general conclusion of the report is "There is only minimal change in the white matter near the basal ganglia suggestive of early stage MS."
I like the words "early stage."
