Abstract

Reports have proposed the retinal choroid as a potential biomarker for dementia and cerebral age-related disorders. However, the clinical use of the choroid as a surrogate marker remains underexplored. This study investigated the associations among choroidal perfusion, white matter hyperintensity (WMH), and cognitive function.

Research summary

The study investigates the associations between choroidal perfusion, white matter hyperintensity, and cognitive function in aging adults. This research is relevant as it explores potential biomarkers related to cognitive decline, which is a significant aspect of aging and age-related diseases.
