Clinical Trial Summary

Leukoaraiosis (LA) corresponds to an alteration of the encephalic white matter, linked to chronic hypoxia. Its pathophysiology, which has been partially elucidated, is underpinned by chronic changes in the walls of small-caliber perforating arteries, leading to chronic hypoperfusion of the white matter, associated with dysfunction of the blood-brain barrier. In affected areas, this process leads to myelin rarefaction, axonal loss, perivascular alterations and the appearance of cavitation zones. Its existence is mainly linked to the presence of vascular risk factors, most notably arterial hypertension. MR fingerprinting is an innovative Magnetic resonance Imaging (MRI) technique allowing to obtain a multiparametric MRI sequence in a non-invasively way and in a single acquisition, generating not only multiple contrasts, but also absolute longitudinal relaxation time (T1) and transverse relaxation time (T2) mappings (T1 and T2 mapping). However, the prognostic role of these T2 values, in terms of ischemic, hemorrhagic and cognitive risk, has never been studied. The objective of this study is to study and compare changes in T1 and T2 values of White Matter Hyperintensities (WMH) and Normal Appearing White Matter (NAWM) in subjects with LA.
