Abstract

The authors examined the relationship between Alzheimer's disease, without cerebrovascular risk factors, and high-intensity signals on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with a 1.5-tesla scanner. There were no significant differences in MRI high-intensity signals between subjects with Alzheimer's disease (N = 16) and healthy control subjects (N = 23).
