Cerebral hemorrhage

which is as normal MRI imaging, but this is where you take scans of the brain and the computer can take away any fluid present in the image, so what you are left with in the image is just brain tissue, which will let you see lesions, or origins of a hemorrhage. The diagnostics of hyper acute infarction and ischaemia is mainly done by diffusion –weighted imaging (DWI). DWI is sensitive to diffusion of water molecules within tissue. The greater the amount of diffusion, the greater the signal loss…

results in death of parts of brain tissue. The other kind of stroke is hemorrhagic stroke, which is caused by bleeding. Hemorrhagic strokes include bleeding in the brain, called intracerebral hemorrhage and bleeding between inner and outer layers of tissue that covered the brain, called subarachnoid hemorrhage.…

and potentially life threatening condition arising from a variety of pathological conditions including traumatic brain injury (TBI), intracranial hemorrhage, disturbance of cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) circulation and brain tumors. Although ventriculostomy continues to be the gold standard modality, the potential risks of misplacement, infection, hemorrhage and obstruction have led to development and implementation of alternative intracranial devices and techniques for monitoring ICP1.…

In the news, the death of Eric Perez. Eric Perez suffered from Cerebral Hemorrhage while in custody. Eric Perez was a juvenile at the time of his disposition, and when he started hearing voices, he alerted the guards to have him medically checked out. However, the guards ignored the teenager because of the paperwork hassle and continued on with their “duties.” Six hours later, and Eric collapses and unfortunately dies from Hemorrhage, now the question arises to who should be responsible for…

(an American neurologist) coma is defined as "a pathological state related to severe and prolonged dysfunction of vigilance and consciousness (Plum and Posner, 1966)." This state is mostly caused by traumatic head injuries which result in brain hemorrhage(1). In other words coma is an extended period of unconsciousness that has sub-classified types such as locked-in syndrome and medically induced coma.…

Stroke is a cerebrovascular accident with sudden onset of focal neurological deficits(s) from either infarction or hemorrhage within the brain. • Ischemic stroke (thrombotic or embolic); 87% • Hemorrhagic stroke (intracerebral or subarachnoid); 13% Risk factors • Age: >45 years; highest during the 7th and 8th decades • Male > Female (3:1), equalizes after menopause • Family history/genetics • Prior stroke or TIA • Smoking, heavy alcohol use, substance abuse (cocaine, amphetamines) •…

“ A stroke occurs when the blood supply to part of your brain is interrupted or severely reduced, depriving brain tissue of oxygen and nutrients”(Mayo Clinic Staff). “Within an hour, the nerve cells in that area of the brain become damaged and die. As a result, the part of the body controlled by the damaged area of the brain cannot work properly” (“Stroke”). Therefore, this leads to the different types of strokes, which are Acute Ischemic stroke and Hemorrhagic stroke. “ In an ischemic stroke,…

In this MRI T-2 Weighted image, the red arrow indicates that there is an excess of Cerebral Spinal Fluid in the intracranial cavity. A condition known as Hydrocephalus, meaning (water in the brain), is caused by an excess of CSF in the intracranial cavity (Blumenfeld, 2010 p. 155). Hydrocephalus can result from an excess of CSF production, obstruction of flow at any point in the ventricles or subarachnoid space, or a decrease in reabsorption via arachnoid granulations (Blumenfeld, 2010 p.…
