Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Presence of small vessel disease (i.e. WMH, lacunes, microbleeds, perivascular spaces, and recent small subcortical infarcts)) on 3 tesla brain MRI in ECAA patients measured by number, volume and localization.	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
- Progression of smalle vessel disease over time - Small vessel disease related brain imaging features on brain MRI related to carotid aneurysm size (maximum diameter) based on previous CT/MRI imaging - Silent brain infarcts on brain MRI measured by number, volume and localization - Pulsatility and distensibility of the carotid wall	—
