The Genetics of White Matter Lesions

7 Jul 2010

Abstract excerpt

White matter lesions (WMLs), commonly seen as hyperintensities on T2-weighted MRI scans of healthy elderly individuals, are considered to be related to small vessel disease in the brain, and are often associated with subtle cognitive and functional impairments. WMLs also show a strong correlation with a wide range of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric disorders. Although a number of vascular risk factors for...
