Abstract

Abstract:

Vascular cognitive impairment (VCI) is lacking of standard imaging diagnosis criteria at present. Recent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology could contribute to provide potential imaging biomarkers for early detection of VCI. This paper reviewed multi-modal MRI studies including diffusion tensor imaging, magnetic resonance spectroscopy, susceptibility weighted imaging and functional MRI to summarize the imaging characterization of VCI. The combination of multi-modal MRI technique would help to elevate the clinical diagnosis accuracy and direct further treatment of VCI, which could provide assistance for further treatment.

Key words: Vascular cognitive impairment; Diffusion tensor imaging; Magnetic resonance spectroscopy; Susceptibility weighted imaging

摘要：

血管性认知障碍目前尚缺乏统一的影像诊断标准，近年来磁共振技术的发展提供了有助于血管性认知障碍早期诊断的神经影像学标志物。本文从弥散张量成像、磁共振波谱、磁共振磁敏感加权成像和功能磁共振成像多种磁共振模态对血管性认知障碍的影像特点进行综述。将多种模态的神经影像学检查方法联合运用有助于提高血管性认知障碍临床诊断的准确率，为进一步的治疗提供帮助。
