Silent brain infarcts: a review of MRI diagnostic criteria.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Silent brain infarcts (SBIs) have been recognized as common lesions in elderly subjects and their diagnosis relies on brain imaging. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the different MRI parameters and criteria used for their evaluation in the literature to better understand the variation across studies and related limitations. METHOD Original MRI studies of SBI perform...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Silent infarcts are frequently found on MRIs of brains of healthy elderly persons (aged >60 years). The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence and determinants of silent infarcts in a population of patients with clinically manifest vascular disease. METHODS To detect silent infarcts, MR images were made in 308 participants of the Second Manifestations o...
متن کاملSilent subcortical brain infarction
Introduction: The silent brain lesions detected by MRI were fairly common not only in first-ever stroke but also in normal elderly subjects. Some recent studies show the possible role of silent sub-cortical brain infarction in ischemic stroke. The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency of silent sub-cortical brain infarction in acute first-ever ischemic stroke. Methods: In this descrip...
متن کاملSilent brain infarcts and the risk of dementia and cognitive decline.
BACKGROUND Silent brain infarcts are frequently seen on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in healthy elderly people and may be associated with dementia and cognitive decline. METHODS We studied the association between silent brain infarcts and the risk of dementia and cognitive decline in 1015 participants of the prospective, population-based Rotterdam Scan Study, who were 60 to 90 years of ag...
متن کاملSilent brain infarcts and leukoaraiosis in young adults with first-ever ischemic stroke.
BACKGROUND We recently observed that 13% of 1,008 consecutive adults aged 15-49 years with first-ever ischemic stroke had one or more silent brain infarcts (SBIs), and more than 5% presented with leukoaraiosis on CT or MRI. We sought to investigate the features of and risk factors for magnetic resonance (MR)-defined SBIs and leukoaraiosis in these patients. METHODS We analyzed the radiologic ...
