Small white matter lesions not picked up by radiologists can this happen? I paid privatley for these scan which were all normal and now I have seen a neurologist they tell me they can see small lesions. I’m so worried right now…I don’t know what to believe anymore . Has anyone had a similar experience and is this normal for why the radiologist did not pick anything up?
