The Role of Cerebrovascular Pathology in Aging and Neurodegenerative Disease Populations

Presented by Mahsa Dadar, Assistant Professor, Department of Psychiatry, McGill University, Canada

Abstract: Late-life cognitive impairment and dementia are heterogeneous and multifactorial conditions driven by a combination of genetic, vascular, and lifestyle-related factors. More than 75% of patients with dementia have evidence of cerebrovascular pathology at autopsy. Cerebrovascular disease lesions can be detected on structural MRI and used as biomarkers to determine the extent of cerebrovascular pathology. These biomarkers are associated with cognitive difficulties and increase the risk of dementia for the same level of neurodegenerative pathology. Given that some of the risk factors for cerebrovascular disease are potentially modifiable, identifying the role of cerebrovascular pathology in aging and neurodegenerative disease populations opens a window for prevention of cognitive decline and dementia.

See you there!
