Spanish term or phrase: Imágenes focales hiperintensas en FLAIR y T2
Hi everyone,

This came up in the findings section of a brain MRI:

"Imágenes focales hiperintensas en FLAIR y T2 en la sustancia blanca de ambos hemisferios cerebrales"

My attempt is "Hyperintense focal images in FLAIR and T2" but I'm not sure this is the right way to word it.

The target audience is in the UK and there is no indication of where the report was written originally.

Thanks,

Nisah
