The topography of white matter hyperintensities on brain MRI in healthy 60- to 64-year-old individuals
Abstract
We report the topography of brain white matter hyperintensities (WMHs) on T2-weighted fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) magnetic resonance imaging in 477 healthy subjects aged 60-64 years selected randomly from the community. WMHs were delineated by using a computer algorithm. We found that all subjects had periventricular WMHs and 96.6% subjects also had deep WMHs. The mean volume of WMHs was 4.9 ml, comprising 0.83% of the white matter, of which 1.2 ml was severe in intensity. The deep WMHs were distributed throughout the cerebral hemispheres, with the occipital and frontal white matter bearing the greatest burden. The territory of the lenticulostriate arteries had the greatest WMHs. A white matter region of 4 mm adjacent to the cortex was not affected by hyperintensities. The mean (SD) number of discrete WMHs was 19.6 (7.1) per subject, of which 6.1 (4.4) were severe in intensity. Nearly half (48.6%) of the subjects had at least one large WMH (>12 mm diameter) and one eighth (12.5%) of the subjects had at least one large WMH that appeared to be severe in MRI. The overall load of WMHs was similar in men and women, but the latter had a higher proportion of their white matter so affected. This study provides the first detailed topographic analysis of WMHs in a large representative middle-aged sample, emphasizes their high prevalence in mid-adult life and raises issues about their etiology and significance.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
