Mild parkinsonian signs (MPS) and cognitive decline are common symptoms of small vessel disease (SVD), and are associated with reduced life quality and duration. There is a probable relationship between the neuroimaging features and SVD symptoms. Objective of this study was to identify whether there is an association between SWI basal nucleus hypointensity, fractional anisotropy and SVD symptoms such as cognitive decline and MPS.
