A member asked:
Chronis ischemic changes is that a stroke?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Not really: It means that chronic poor blood flow to parts of the brain caused changes in the tissue that are seen on imaging. Stroke is typically an acute blockage of blood flow to the brain which causes damage to brain tissue.
