This trial is looking for people who have had a stroke and other health risks. Participants will have three MRI scans over about 1.25 years to help researchers understand brain health issues.
You may be able to join if
- I have had a stroke.
- I have high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or diabetes.
- My MRI shows signs of cerebral small vessel disease.
You may not be able to join if
- I cannot complete three MRI scans over 1.25 years.

Check Your EligibilityCerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) can lead to vascular cognitive impairment and dementia (VCID). The hallmark of CSVD is the appearance and progression of white matter hyperintensities (WMH) on MRI. The goal of this study it to recruit and follow individuals at risk for WMH progression and use serial MRI scanning to gain insights into the pathogenesis of CSVD.
