Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1) 3T MRI: the amplitude of the BOLD response in percentage signal change between stimulus on and off, time-to-peak response (sec), and time-to-baseline (sec) after discontinuation of the visual stimulus, classic signs of CAA (intracranial hemorrhage, lobar microbleeds, subarachnoidal hemorrhage and superficial siderosis) and SVD markers (number of small subcortical infarcts and lacunes, volume of white matter hyperintensities (WMHs), perivascular spaces in the basal ganglia and centrum semiovale, number and location of deep microbleeds and grey matter volume). 2) Neuropsychological assessment 3) Baseline characteristics, 4) DNA: APOE * genotype. | — |
