What I think this means is that they've found non-enhancing lesions (not currently inflamed, could be MS non-active though) that are non-specific (no single known cause), that MIGHT be indicative of MS (MS could be one cause), but not pathognomonic (definitively/necessarily) MS.

What did the neuro say?
