So I got my MRI test result and this says “Possible subtle hyperintense signal seen involving the intraorbital segment of the right eye”. & “There is a mild to moderate burden of T1 black holes”.
What does these mean? Thank you in Advance.
You may have new area of inflammation in optic nerve tract but it's subtle. And they aren't sure. Hence they say possible
T1 is old damage
Thank you for interpreting that for me.
Altogether, T1 sequences show any old areas of atrophy or black holes, T2 sequences help show the overall number of MS lesions in the brain or spinal cord (a.k.a. “MS lesion burden”), and contrast-enhanced sequences show any new and active MS lesions (a.k.a. “enhancing lesions”).
