Neuroimaging markers of cSVD are associated with various clinical manifestations, suggesting a multisystem phenotype. However, features classically associated with cSVD, for example, gait, had limited supporting evidence, and for many body systems, there were no available reviews. Similarly, while white matter hyperintensities were relatively well studied, there were limited data on phenotypes associated with other cSVD features. Future studies should characterize the full clinical spectrum of cSVD and explore clinical associations beyond neurocognitive and neuropsychiatric presentations.
