What is microangiopathic and cerebral atrophy?

Microangiopathy refers to damage to the small blood vessels, often leading to issues such as reduced blood flow and oxygen delivery to tissues, which can result in various health problems, including organ dysfunction. Cerebral atrophy is the loss of neurons and the connections between them in the brain, leading to a decrease in brain volume. Together, microangiopathy and cerebral atrophy can contribute to cognitive decline and other neurological issues, often seen in conditions like chronic hypertension and Diabetes.
