Small vessel disease is an important frontier in neurology; about 25% of strokes are classified as small vessel, and SVD is the most common cause of vascular cognitive impairment. The risk of developing SVD increases with age, making this a growing concern for countries with aging populations. Despite this, there has been a paucity of information about its causes, diagnosis, prevention and treatment. This volume brings together contributions from leading international experts in the field and discusses pathogenesis, pathophysiology, clinical and radiologic manifestations, prevention and treatment modalities, and future directions for research and practice. Genetic forms of SVD are discussed, as well as the rapid development of neuroimaging techniques as tools for screening and treatment. This authoritative book is essential reading for neurologists, stroke physicians, geriatricians, and interventional neuroradiologists, as well as researchers in the fields of aging and dementia.

- Chapters are written by leading international authorities and draw on personal experience of diagnosis and management
- New developments are presented to give readers the most up-to-date information available
Reviews & endorsements
'… the editors have done a remarkable job in assembling a world-class team of authors, both established authorities in their fields as well as rising stars … the book flows nicely … [and] will be of interest to all clinicians and researchers working in the fields of stroke and cognitive impairment, including students or trainees new to the field.'
