Question cerebral atrophy gone?

Hi all, my daughter had cerebral atrophy shortly after she was born, she just had a follow up CT done, and they said it was gone, it had corrected itself. From my understanding of atrophy, it is wasting away of the brain. Is it possible that this can happen? If it is that is great news!

Thanks

I'm sorry, but once again, we cannot give medical advice on this website. These questions need to be taken to your daughter's doctor for further explaination. Good luck with everything!
