Cerebral blood flow (CBF) is an important factor in
brain function. We to assess the link between quantified
gray matter CBF and epidemiological factors obtained 12
years before, on a large cohort of elderly subjects.
Mean and regional CBF were obtained from Pulsed Arterial
Spin Labeling sequence after correction for white matter
lesion and partial volume effect. Results exhibit
significant decrease in CBF in dyslipidemia and an
increase in hypertension. The regional analysis
highlights localization of these modifications in
posterior circulation territories (hypertension), and
regions of the anterior circulation (dyslipidemia).
Those two factors seems able to predict CBF variations.
