Popis: We were looking for vascular alterations of the brain due to risk factors like hypertension or hyperlipidemia. The value of clinical and laboratory findings was investigated as well as the use of several medical imaging systems. According to its high sensitivity in detecting microvascular changes, MRI ist superior to CT and scintigraphy. Vascular alteration in the area of medulla oblongata show good coincidence with risk factors and metabolic disorders.
