stroke prevention

This medical illustration depicts three primary types of stroke: atherosclerotic, hemorrhagic, and ischemic cerebrovascular accidents (CVAs). Each diagram demonstrates distinct pathophysiological mechanisms leading to brain tissue damage through different vascular complications.

This educational illustration demonstrates the progressive stages of atherosclerosis alongside a detailed view of the human heart. The diagram effectively shows how this cardiovascular disease develops over time, from normal arterial function to severe blockage, while also depicting its potential impact on the heart. The color-coded illustration makes it easy to understand the progression of this serious cardiovascular condition.
