Difference between Cerebral atherosclerosis and Dementia

Cerebral atherosclerosis vs. Dementia

Cerebral atherosclerosis is a type of atherosclerosis where build-up of plaque in the blood vessels of the brain occurs. Dementia is a broad category of brain diseases that cause a long-term and often gradual decrease in the ability to think and remember that is great enough to affect a person's daily functioning.

Similarities between Cerebral atherosclerosis and Dementia

Cerebral atherosclerosis and Dementia have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Alzheimer's disease, CT scan, Magnetic resonance imaging, Stroke.

Alzheimer's disease

Alzheimer's disease (AD), also referred to simply as Alzheimer's, is a chronic neurodegenerative disease that usually starts slowly and worsens over time.

CT scan

A CT scan, also known as computed tomography scan, makes use of computer-processed combinations of many X-ray measurements taken from different angles to produce cross-sectional (tomographic) images (virtual "slices") of specific areas of a scanned object, allowing the user to see inside the object without cutting.
