My child had an mri for speech delay (she
is almost 2 1/2) and these are some of the
results. Does anyone know what this
means?
There are a few punctate signal changes
that are
nonspecific involving the right frontal
subcortical
white matter along the frontal horns and
lateral
ventricles and possibly within the right
temporal lobe
subcortical white matter. There are
nonspecific in
nature, but may be ischemic in etiology.
Prior
infectious or inflammatory disease can
have a similar
appearance.
Thank you.

I don't know what that means, but I do
know that it's relatively common for kids
to start talking late. I have a friend
whose little girl only knew 1 word when
she was 2, and another little boy who
didn't start talking until he was three.
Chances are, you're just doing a really
good job of understanding her without her
talking, so she doesn't feel like she
needs to talk. Don't worry!
