Exploring the relationship between cognitive performance and magnetic resonance imaging diffusion parameters in elderly individuals
Diffusivity metrics, including fractional anisotropy, mean diffusivity, and peak width of the mean diffusivity significantly correlated with brain volume, white matter hyperintensities, and cognitive scores. These findings may serve as potential imaging markers for monitoring cognitive decline and dementia.
