Severity of Leukoaraiosis and Susceptibility to Infarct Growth in Acute Stroke
Stroke 39:1409-1413, Ay,H.,et al, 2008
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
LA volume at the time of acute ischemic stroke is a predictor infarct growth. Because LA is associated with factors that modulate tissue perfusion as well as tissue capacity for handling of ischemia, LA volume appears to be a composite predictive marker for the fate of acutely ischemic tissue.
