The space between the arachnoid and pia meningeal layers encasing the brain is a landscape of connective tissue, blood vessels, and cerebrospinal fluid. Scientists debate how that fluid moves within ...

Researchers have uncovered a potential route to developing the first ever drug treatments for vascular dementia that directly target a cause of the condition. The research has shed light on how high ...

“ATT may be more sensitive to age-related decline than CBF, and therefore useful for early detection and management of cerebrovascular impairment.” “ATT may be more sensitive to age-related decline ...

Arterial spin labeling (ASL) is a non‐invasive magnetic resonance imaging technique that exploits magnetically labelled arterial blood water as an endogenous tracer to quantitatively assess cerebral ...

Researchers have developed a new metric from measured blood circulation in our brain. This metric has implications for brain conditions, including Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. Each ...

As we age, our arteries gradually become less flexible, making it harder for the heart to pump blood throughout the body. This hardening of the arteries occurs faster in people with high blood ...

Subtle changes in how blood flows through the brain and how brain tissue uses oxygen may be closely linked to Alzheimer's disease risk, according to new research from the Mark and Mary Stevens ...

Researchers at Niigata University have used advanced three-dimensional (3D) imaging to reveal how amyloid β (Aβ) deposits spread along blood vessels in the human brain in cerebral amyloid angiopathy ...

A major international study has uncovered a new biological clue that could help predict dementia long before memory problems arise. Researchers from the University of Cambridge and Zhejiang University ...

Eating a daily serving of peanuts may help older adults improve blood flow to their brains and boost memory, according to new research. In a study published in Clinical Nutrition, scientists at the ...

A recent study published in the journal Nutrition describes the impact of caffeine intake on cerebral blood flow in young, healthy individuals. Study: Effects of caffeine on cerebral blood flow. Image ...
