98 Bowery: 1969-89. View From The Top Floor. Telling stories with pictures and a few carefully chosen words is what I enjoy doing best. Over the years I have been lucky to create many visual narratives during a varied career as an artist, journalist, curator, art historian and publisher.
Ischemic stroke is a type of stroke where blood vessels to the brain are blocked by plaques that either formed in those vessels or moved from a different body part and traveled to the brain vessels to block them, cutting off the blood supply.
An ischemic stroke is one that is caused by an artery or blood vessel that is blocked. Approximately 80% of strokes are ischemic. Making up the other 20% are hemorrhagic strokes, which occur when a blood vessel or artery bursts and leaks into the brain.
