- While cerebrovascular disease has long been known to co-occur with Alzheimer's disease (AD), recent studies suggest an etiologic contribution to AD pathogenesis. We used 4D-Flow magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to evaluate blood flow and pulsatility indices in the Circle of Willis. We hypothesized decreased mean blood flow and increased pulsatility, metrics indicative of poor vascular health, would be associated with cerebral atrophy and an AD cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) profile.
