And since 87 of strokes are ischemic strokes, the remainder are hemorrhagic, so this is the remaining 13 of strokes.

And I also want to be clear most strokes are actually ischemic strokes.

There's the ischemic strokes, and the other type of stroke is hemorrhagic, and these can kind of be sub categorized, but I won't go into all of the details there.

let's think about the 2 major types of strokes.

The numbers I looked up, they say, 87 of strokes are ischemic.

And that's why ischemic strokes are also sometimes called cerebral infarctions.

Think of strokes that can devastate your mind or render you unconscious.

And I was with him in the park as a three year old when he first had the first of the strokes that would take his life a few years later.

I think you'll have an idea of how these strokes are different and how they interrupt the blood flow to different parts of the brain.

Best hospitals where doctors say they would go for cancer treatment, births, strokes, heart disease, hip replacements, 4 a.m. emergencies.

There are theta brainwaves, there are delta brainwaves, and there are gamma brainwaves.

Criteria for brain death vary.

Beta brainwaves are fine.

In order to clamp in the desired center of stroke

The sea of blue that you see here are densely packed brain cells, but the green brain cells, the green brain cells are the ones that are holding on to a specific fear memory.

The boring ring is now clamped at the center of the stroke

So the outer part of that brain is the neocortex.

This is called the cortex it's the outer part of the brain.

Current research includes the tracking of changes that occur in the motor areas of the cerebral cortex as a result of a stroke.

That blue line there is my brainwave.

You're flying through the cortex of my colleague's brain.

Do you know what a stroke is, exactly?

(2007) suggested that the higher stroke incidence in the stroke belt is related to experiences or exposures in childhood.

So this front part of the brain here is called your frontal cortex.

Look at cerebral cortex, look at brain stem,

As you might know, a stroke is a brain injury.

Ruslan died in June 2005 after suffering from stroke and pneumonia.

And this was the portion of my brain that I lost on the morning of my stroke.

There are five kinds of brain waves, if you're not familiar with them.

I drew right here, that part of the brain, if you have a hemorrhagic stroke, you have all of this blood that's flowing into the brain, and all of that uncontrolled blood will mess up that part of the brain, that causes those neurons and brain tissue to malfunction and maybe causes some of them to die, and it would also cause the blood flow further dowstream to be impaired, so the stuff downstream aren't going to get the blood they need because all the blood is being released everywhere else.

There is the brain stem in between the cerebral cortex and the spinal cord.

However the jaw stroke is not at the center of travel

But these three brain systems lust, romantic love and attachment, aren't always connected to each other.

The person experiencing the stroke and I'm not a doctor, so take all of this with a grain of salt the person experiencing the stroke could be anywhere from well, one, they may not even notice that damage is occurring, they might have a headache, or it might be more severe, they might actually not be able to properly move a side of their body, or a side of their face, or properly be able to speak, so it really depends on what part of the brain is being damaged.

But in either of these situations, an ischemic stroke is caused by some type of restriction or blockage that causes things downstream to not get proper oxygen, and then, so you can imagine, cells over here aren't going to get their oxygen, and then they might actually die.

The tools that we have now allow us to detect these brain changes much earlier, long before the symptoms emerge.

In the short term, while Kadima will get fewer votes without Sharon at the helm, some voters will be swayed by sympathy for the stricken leader.

They are also associated with increased risk of heart disease and stroke.

But how you gonna blame heart attacks and strokes on environmental pollution?

You better watch that, Big Momma. A stroke's a bad way to go.

And our hope is that, by figuring out brain circuits at a level of abstraction that lets us repair them and engineer them, we can take some of these intractable disorders that I told you about earlier, practically none of which are cured, and in the 21st century make them history.

Most Chinese doctors and patients have, for example, long regarded acupuncture as an effective treatment for stroke, using it to improve motor, speech, and other functions that have been destroyed.

And I'm going to represent the neocortex here, by this box that's sticking on top of the old brain.

A stroke is the cause of isolated dizziness in 0.7 of people who present to the emergency room.
