In the United States more than 750,000 individuals have a stroke each year. To put this into perspective, there are more new strokes than cancers of the breast, prostate and colon combined.
Although there are multiple causes of stroke, disease of the carotid artery, the major blood supply to the brain, is responsible for 40 percent of all strokes.

  • This video has a lot of great information but I get a little lost in all the information. Would be great to add some visuals and text.
