About This Trial

The goal of this study is to gain a better understanding of why some individuals who have suffered a stroke experience post-stroke cognitive decline. Specifically this study is testing whether global disruption of the blood-brain barrier detected at the time of the stroke is informative about the risk of post-stroke cognitive decline over the next 3 years.
