![(A) MRI features of small vessel disease in an 86-year-old man with poorly controlled chronic hypertension. FLAIR shows severe periventricular white matter hyperintensities and lacunar strokes in basal ganglia (arrows). SWI shows multiple microbleeds in basal ganglia typical of hypertensive microangiopathy (arrows). (B) MRI features of cerebral amyloid angiopathy in a 71-year-old man with mild cognitive impairment and a positive [18F]-florbetaben amyloid PET. SWI revealed up to 12 microbleeds and three areas of focal cortical superficial siderosis (arrows), one in the right frontal lobe. FLAIR showed the typical multispot pattern of white matter hyperintensities in centri semiovale. T2 showed enlarged perivascular spaces in centri semiovale. FLAIR=fluid-attenuated inversion recovery. SWI=susceptibility weighted imaging.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ypu6bwefbbzhcvojdj7mz657/bafkreihijzhg3g2ndfe5m5zlzk7ppseyavwn3c2ulsecwi4b2ifjajfory)
