(ADAS-cog), completed within 14 days of neuroimaging. All images were evaluated applying the same BALI rating schema, to assess lesions in the deep white matter, periventricular, basal ganglia and the infratentorial regions, deficits in the cortical gray matter, the extent of dilated small vessels, and global atrophy. Maximum possible BALI¼25; higher scores indicate greater damage. Results: The inter-rater agreement rate was consistently high, ranging from 0.96 to 0.98. Under each field-strength and image-type condition, the BALI scores differed significantly between diagnosis (p0.35, p0.40, p0.36, p3.90, p3.99, p
