Table 3 Descriptive statistics by AD biomarker profiles for CSO-PVS and BG-PVS volumes (in ml) for four annual visits. Group-level results included subjects who had at least three scans available. We removed extreme values in volumes within the whole sample for each time point to lessen the influence of outliers and corrected estimates for age at the time of the scan
