Ischemic and Hemorrhagic Strokes
Description
This figure provides a visual comparison between two common types of strokes: ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes. An ischemic stroke occurs when a blood vessel that supplies the brain becomes blocked or "clogged" and impairs blood flow to part of the brain. Hemorrhagic stroke is due to bleeding into the brain by the rupture of a blood vessel. Hemorrhagic stroke may be further subdivided into intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH).
