Cerebrovascular disease (CVD) is responsible for the second most common form of age-related dementia. vascular dementia (VaD), or more concisely vascular cognitive impairment (VCI), is attributed to conditions resulting from a variety of cerebrovascular lesions or impaired brain perfusion (O’Brien et al., 2003). The pathological diagnosis of VaD or VCI requires systematic evaluation of potentially relevant clinical or phenotypic features.
