Perivascular spaces as a marker of disease severity and neurodegeneration in patients with behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia
BackgroundBehavioural Variant Frontotemporal Dementia (bvFTD) is a rapidly progressing neurodegenerative proteinopathy. Perivascular spaces (PVS) form a part of the brain’s glymphatic clearance system. When enlarged due to poor glymphatic clearance of toxic proteins, PVS become larger and more consp...
