Choroid plexus enlargement is associated with poor functional status in cerebral small vessel disease via reduced DTI-ALPS index: a 5T MRI study
CP enlargement is associated with poor functional status in CSVD, and this relationship is partly explained by reduced DTI-ALPS index, suggesting a glymphatic pathway involvement. Quantitative MRI metrics of CP volume and DTI-ALPS index may serve as potential imaging biomarkers for functional status in CSVD.
