Brain Atrophy is Related to Lacunar Lesions and Tissue Microstructural Changes in CADASIL
Stroke 38:1786-1790, Jouvent, E.,et al, 2012
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
In association with age, mean apparent diffusion coefficient and volume of lacunar lesions are strong and independent MRI predictors of BPF, a key marker of cognitive and motor disability in CADASIL. These results suggest brain atrophy is related to remote and/or diffuse consequences of both lacunar lesions and widespread microstructural alterations within the brain outside lacunar lesions.
