Influence of White Matter Hyperintensities on the Cognition of Patients With Parkinson Disease
Background
White matter hyperintensities (WMH) have been associated with cognitive impairment in elderly persons and in patients with Alzheimer disease. However, the role of WMH in Parkinson disease (PD) dementia remains to be elucidated.
