Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The amount and distribution of cerebral microbleeds (CMB) are important risk factors for cognitive impairment. Our objective was to train and validate a deep learning (DL)-based segmentation model for cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) on SWI and to find associations among CMB, cognitive impairment, and vascular risk factors.
