very informative video about brain disorders... changing lifestyle can be one of the important reasons for causing ailments. you can avoid allopathy treatment which no doubt leaves you with side effects and is not a permanent solution. That's why you should give priority to ayurvedic treatment i.e. planet Ayurveda revive some Ayurvedic herbs - Brahmi Capsules, Ashwagandha Capsules & Stress Support are 100 % pure and are free from preservatives.

Really a nice presentation! Thanks!

Hey sir ..
My father has acute infarct in left corona radiata.
As I don't have any medical background it is hard for me to understand what does it actually,can anyone tell me what is it ? Is it life threatening ?

I have another spesific query as below: If patient suffer from stroke and below are the reports -

A. Below is the CT scan report on the day of stroke.


EXAMINATION :

C.T.BRAIN.

Serial axial contiguous 5 & 10 mm sections were obtained from base of skull to vertex ;as plain study.

The cerebral parenchyma shows normal grey & white matter differentiation.

A well defined hypodense area is seen in the right paraventricular region.

There is no shift of mid-line structures. The ventricular system, basal cisterns, sylvian fissures, and the sulcal C.S.F. spaces do not reveal any abnormality.

IMPRESSION : WELL DEFINED HYPODENSE AREA IN THE RIGHT PARAVENTRICULAR REGION IS MOSTLY DUE TO AN INFARCT.

B) Below is the report of MRI on 5th day of hospitalization.

MRI OF THE BRAIN

LIMITED STUDY FOR STROKE

REPORT:

A LIMITED STUDY [FLAIR AND DIFFUSIONĮ WAS PERFOMED FOR SCREENING OF STROKE.

The cerebellar hemispheres and vermis are normal.

The brainstem is normal.

The basal cisterns are prominent.

There is a welldefined altered signal intensity area (hyperintense on Diffusion, Flair and hypointense on T1W images.) in the right insular cortex-basal ganglia- white matter in the posterior parietal periventricular region causing partial effacement of adjacent cerebral sulci..

The third, fourth and both lateral ventricles are normal in size.

The thalamic-basal ganglia regions are normal.

There is widening of rest of the cerebral sulci.

The eye-balls and optic nerves appear normal.

IMPRESSION: MR STUDY REVEALS A WELL-DEFINED ACUTE INFARCT INVOLVING THE RIGHT INSULAR CORTEX-BASAL GANGLIA - WHITE MATTER IN THE POSTERIOR PARIETAL/ PERIVENTRICULAR REGION CAUSING PARTIAL EFFACEMENT OF ADJACENT CEREBRAL SULCI.

GENERALIZED CEREBRAL ATROPHY-CONSISTENT WITH AGE.

C) Query is that, please check whether this condition fall in any of below term
