Imaging of axonal damage in multiple sclerosis: spatial distribution of magnetic resonance imaging lesions.

abstract：:To identify those factors associated with cerebral hemorrhage among brains with cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA), we undertook a comparative postmortem histopathological study of amyloid-containing vessels in the brains of patients with and without hemorrhage. Those without hemorrhage were represented by the followin...
