The effect of white matter hyperintensities on neurodegeneration in mild cognitive impairment

Abstract

It is unclear whether white matter hyperintensities (WMHs), magnetic resonance imaging markers of small‐vessel cerebrovascular disease, promote neurodegeneration and associated clinical decline in Alzheimer's disease (AD), or simply co‐occur with recognized pathogenic processes.
