Project Details
Description
The progression of Alzheimer's disease may involve damage to white matter in the brain. White matter is a kind of complex 'wiring system' that connects nerve cells in different brain regions with one another. Damage to white matter often appears on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans as patches called white matter hyperintensities (WMH). These patches likely reflect significant brain blood vessel disease.
