    AbstractPeriventricular white matter hyperintensities on postmortem magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and myelin-stained frontal and parietal histologic sections were evaluated independently in 12 cases. There was a strong relationship between the extent of white matter hyperintensities on MRI and the extent of gross and microscopic changes seen in the white matter of myelin-stained sections, particularly in the frontal lobe. In this material, the extent of myelin rarefaction correlated with a 0- to 8-point white matter hyperintensity scale rating on MRI in the same brains.
