Distinct spatial contributions of amyloid pathology and cerebral small vessel disease to hippocampal morphology

INTRODUCTION: Cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) and amyloid beta (Aβ) pathology frequently co-exist. The impact of concurrent pathology on the pattern of hippocampal atrophy, a key substrate of memory impacted early and extensively in dementia, remains poorly understood. METHODS: In a unique cohort of mixed Alzheimer's disease and moderate-severe SVD, we examined whether total and regional neuroimaging measures of SVD, white matter …
