Article Synopsis
- Intracranial arteriosclerosis is linked to cognitive impairment and dementia, potentially through changes in brain structure like cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD).
- The Rotterdam Study measured intracranial carotid artery calcification (ICAC) and vertebrobasilar artery calcification (VBAC) in 1,489 participants using CT and MRI scans to examine their relationship with CSVD.
- Findings revealed that higher levels of ICAC and VBAC were associated with increased markers of CSVD over time, although there was no significant link to accelerated brain atrophy.
