Neuroimaging standards for research into small vessel disease and its contribution to ageing and neurodegeneration.
Cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) is a standard accompaniment of ageing. Features seen on neuroimaging embrace current small subcortical infarcts, lacunes, white matter hyperintensities, perivascular areas, microbleeds, and mind atrophy. SVD can current as a stroke or cognitive decline, or can have few or no signs. SVD ceaselessly coexists with neurodegenerative disease, and can exacerbate …
