Investigation of the Effects of Aging and Small Vessel Disease on Cardiac Frequency Signal in Cerebral White Matter as Imaged by Echo Planar Imaging using Magnetic Resonance
Cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) is highly prevalent in older adults and is a predictor of stroke, dementia, and death. SVD is also associated with cognitive dysfunction, gait problems, and urinary incontinence. SVD is diagnosed based on white matter hyperintensities on T2 weighted scans. This th...
