Hypertension increases the risk of cerebral
microbleed in the territory of posterior cerebral artery: a study of the association of
microbleeds categorized on a basis of vascular territories and cardiovascular risk factors.

microbleed," Multimedia Tools and Applications, vol.
The topographic distribution of CMBs was determined according to the areas included in both BOMBS (Brain Observer
MicroBleed Scale) (41), and MARS (The
Microbleed Anatomical Rating Scale) (42).
Cerebral
microbleed causing an acute stroke-like episode in a CADASIL patient.
Two multivariate regression analyses examined the relationship between
microbleed location and dementia subtype.
When a longitudinal analysis was conducted in patients without
microbleed at baseline, COPD independently predicted a sevenfold increase in risk of deep or infratentorial
microbleeds (OR, 7.1; P = .002) over a median time interval of 3.42 years.
"
Microbleed assessment on T2*-weighted MRI may serve as a possible marker of both cerebral amyloid angiopathy and hypertensive vasculopathy progression," Dr.
"The brain is not one big
microbleed. There will be some limit to how many we pick up, but for now the harder we look the more we find."
Is cerebral
microbleed prevalence relevant as a biomarker in amnestic mild cognitive impairment and mild Alzheimer's disease?
"
Microbleed assessment on T2 *-weighted MRI may serve as a possible marker of both cerebral amyloid angiopathy and hypertensive vasculopathy progression," Dr.
SWI is sensitive in detecting cerebral
microbleed (CMB), and CMB might not be a contraindication for thrombolytic therapy, yet CMBs in multiple foci could possibly be related to intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) after thrombolysis.
On the other hand, thinning the blood without consulting a medical professional may be unnecessary, and could increase the risk of a
microbleed that can harm your brain."
