Analysis of radiological features in patients with post-stroke depression and cognitive impairment

  • Jun Mu EMAIL logo and Jiayi Li ORCID logo

Abstract

Post-stroke depression (PSD) and post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) are common complications following a stroke, significantly impacting the quality of life and survival time of survivors. Currently, the comorbidity of PSCI and PSD is receiving increasing attention, as they share some common clinical characteristics, mechanisms, risk factors, radiological features, and treatment strategies. They influence each other, with the clinical prevalence of PSD comorbid with PSCI reaching as high as 26.15 %. The prevention, screening, diagnosis, and treatment of PSD and PSCI require collaboration across clinical, radiological, and neuropsychological evaluations. This paper aims to summarize the common radiological features of both conditions from a radiological perspective, which may aid in identifying early screening and predictive imaging biomarkers.
