Best Answer

Multi infarcts refer to multiple small areas of tissue damage in the brain that result from decreased blood flow, typically due to the blockage of small blood vessels. These infarcts can contribute to conditions such as vascular dementia and may have a cumulative effect on cognitive function over time. Management often involves addressing underlying risk factors for stroke and cognitive decline.
