Brain aging is a complex process that affects everything from the subcellular to the organ
level, begins early in life, and accelerates with age. Morphologically, brain aging is primarily …

White matter (WM) occupies a large volume of the human cerebrum and is mainly composed
of myelinated axons and myelin-producing glial cells. The myelinated axons within WM are …

In neuroscience, there is a growing consensus that higher cognitive functions may be
supported by distributed networks involving different cerebral regions, rather than by single …

Loss of cognitive function is one the most devastating manifestations of ageing and vascular
disease. Cognitive decline is rapidly becoming an important cause of disability worldwide …

High blood pressure is considered an important risk factor for cerebral white matter lesions
(WMLs) in the aging population. In a longitudinal population-based study of 665 …

Background and Purpose—It is unknown whether white matter lesions (WML) develop
abruptly in previously normal brain areas, or whether tissue changes are already present …

There are numerous theories of aging, a process which still seems inevitable. Aging leads to
cancer and multi-systemic disorders as well as chronic diseases. Decline in age-associated …

Anatomical alignment in neuroimaging studies is of such importance that considerable effort
is put into improving the registration used to establish spatial correspondence. Tract-based …

Both healthy and pathological brain aging are characterized by various degrees of cognitive
decline that strongly correlate with morphological changes referred to as cerebral atrophy …
