Increasing evidence indicates that cerebrovascular dysfunction may precede cognitive decline in aging and Alzheimer's disease (AD). Reduced cerebral blood flow (CBF) is associated with cognitive impairment in older adults. However, less is known regarding the association between CBF and functional decline, and whether CBF predicts functional decline beyond cerebrovascular and metabolic risk factors.
