Microbleed and microinfarct detection in amyloid angiopathy: a high-resolution MRI-histopathology study

Cerebral amyloid angiopathy is a common neuropathological finding in the ageing human brain, associated with cognitive impairment. Neuroimaging markers of severe cerebral amyloid angiopathy are cortical microbleeds and microinfarcts. These parenchymal brain lesions are considered key contributors to cognitive impairment. Therefore, they are important targets for therapeutic strategies and may serve as surrogate neuroimaging markers in clinical...
