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.
Left-sided infarcts, particularly in the context of brain strokes, are more common due to the dominance of the left hemisphere in language and motor functions for most individuals, especially right-handed people. Additionally, the left side of the heart pumps blood directly to the brain, making it more susceptible to embolic events originating from the heart. Conditions like atrial fibrillation can lead to blood clots forming in the left atrium, increasing the risk of strokes affecting the left side of the brain. Consequently, the left-sided infarcts are frequently observed in clinical practice.
Ishcaemic foci are also called lacunar infarcts. They are caused when blood flow is interrupted to small areas of the brain. It can be detected by an MRI scan.
Cerebral infarction (CI) is a severe condition caused by a focal vascular occlusion in an area of the brain. This causes an area of destruction resulting from a lack of oxygen delivery.
This is a curable condition.Unfortunately, death is not curable.
An infarct occurs when proper blood flow has been restricted to the point of tissue death. There are two types of infarcts, hemorrhagic and a white infarction.
A bilateral lacunar infarcts is a type of stroke that is experienced by human beings. It is said that this type of stroke is most common in men and those who are of African or Asian descent.
Multi-infarct dementia is not caused by the accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid; rather, it results from multiple small strokes that lead to brain damage and cognitive decline. These strokes disrupt blood flow to various areas of the brain, causing a series of small infarcts. The cumulative effect of these infarcts can impair cognitive functions, memory, and overall mental processing. Proper management of risk factors like hypertension and diabetes is essential to prevent further strokes and progression of the condition.
In lLayman's terms, a cortical infarct is a type of stroke.
Its very unlikely but possible. Why do you ask?
Arthritis is not curable. However, there are effective treatments available.
