Question

Aarons MRI
My son is OCD and had a brain MRI which the doctor said was clear. It appears to me that there are some bright spots which should be there. Could someone please take a look?

Answer
Well whatever this is it is not signs of any brain tumor. And my field of expertise here is STRICTLY brain tumors. I'm a medical oncologist & radiation therapist with experience of treating brain tumors. I'm NOT a diagnostic neuroradiologist! So I strongly suggest that you ask for a second opinion from such a specialist! Good luck!
