Background: The Fazekas scale is one of the most commonly used visual grading systems for white matter hyperintensity (WMH) for brain disorders like dementia from T2-fluid attenuated inversion recovery magnetic resonance (MR) images (T2-FLAIRs). However,

Visceral obesity relates to deep white matter hyperintensities via inflammation [PDF]
ObjectiveWhite matter hyperintensities (WMHs) are linked to vascular risk factors and increase the risk of cognitive decline, dementia, and stroke. We here aimed to determine whether obesity contributes to regional WMHs using a whole‐brain approach in a well‐characterized population‐based cohort.MethodsWaist‐to‐hip ratio (WHR), body mass index (BMI ...

Total Deep Medullary Veins Score in Cerebral Small Vessel Disease: Association with Imaging Markers and Factors Related to Its Elevation [PDF]
Background Deep medullary veins (DMV) are small veins distributed perpendicularly to the lateral ventricles, which may have a potential role in the pathogenesis or progression of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) .

Factors Associated With the Dilation of Perivascular Space in Healthy Elderly Subjects
Background: The dilation of perivascular space (PVS) has been widely used to reflect brain degeneration in clinical brain imaging studies. However, PVS characteristics exhibit large differences in healthy subjects.

Assessment of Brain Deep White Matter Hyperintensities in Smokers in Azerbaijan
Bacground: T2 hyperintense foci (white matter hyperintensities) are seen in the white matter of the brain on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in smokers. The aim of the study is to reveal the relationship, number and size of these white matter hyperintensities with smoking in Azerbaijani smoking men and to compare them with the control group.

Ischemic Basis for Deep White Matter Hyperintensities in Major Depression [PDF]
White matter hyperintensities on magnetic resonance imaging are increased in major depression in the deep white matter, especially in frontal areas. These lesions have been hypothesized to be ischemic in origin, but there have been no previous neuropathological studies in depression.

Deep Bayesian networks for uncertainty estimation and adversarial resistance of white matter hyperintensity segmentation [PDF]
Abstract White matter hyperintensities (WMH) are frequently observed on structural neuroimaging of elderly populations and are associated with cognitive decline and increased risk of dementia. Many existing WMH segmentation algorithms produce suboptimal results in populations with vascular lesions or brain atrophy, or

Swallowing Impairment in Patients with Cerebral Small Vessel Disease
Background: Dysphagia is the important complication related to cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) including lacunar infarcts (LIs), white matter hyperintensity (WMH), cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) and perivascular spaces (PVS).
