Recognizing and Treating a Stroke with Dr. Martin Radvany

Timely response is critical when someone has a stroke, which occurs when blood flow to the brain is stopped or interrupted. Every second that the brain does not receive blood flow kills 2 million brain cells. In this episode of Inside Scope, host Dr. Daniel Haight talks with interventional radiologist Dr. Martin Radvany about the importance of seeking medical attention quickly when you suspect someone is having a stroke. Dr. Radvany shares information about risk factors of stroke, how to recognize the signs, and the treatments available for stroke patients.
