interestingly, in this case i think there may even be reason why white matter hyper intensities could be more common in our insular region of interest where we detected thinning. The disease is HIV and activated monocytes invade the perivascular spaces where they can cause inflamation, which

a collaborator just got a grant review that claimed  There's a possibility that changes in cortical thickness in the insula might be a consequence of lesions (MR-hyperintensities) in the white matter. i would think that white matter hyper intensities would tend to enhance
