The Cerebrovascular Disease Program diagnoses and treats acute stroke and vascular disease of the brain and spinal cord. Patients are evaluated to determine whether their neurological symptoms are due to a limitation or interruption of blood flow to the brain. Surgical procedures are performed in dedicated neurosurgery operating rooms equipped with the latest microsurgical instrumentation. Neurophysiological monitoring is available at all times to provide precise evaluation of brain and spinal cord function during surgery. Stroke is not preventable.
Stroke is preventable.
Stroke cannot be treated. Stroke requires emergency treatment. Stroke only strikes the elderly. Anyone can have a stroke. Stroke happens to the heart.
