Brain scan findings linked to symptom relief in memory trial

In a six-month trial of 51 people with vascular mild cognitive impairment, lower volumes of bright brain areas were linked to greater symptom reductions.In a six-month trial of 51 people with vascular mild cognitive impairment, lower volumes of bright brain areas were linked to greater symptom reductions.
