Cerebrovascular Disease Treatment in Oregon
Trusted Care for Cerebrovascular Concerns
Concerned about dizziness, arm pain, or other symptoms? You’re not alone. Cerebrovascular disease affects the arteries that supply blood to your brain and can lead to serious complications like stroke. At Oregon Vascular Specialists, we provide expert, image-guided care.
Understanding Cerebrovascular Disease
Cerebrovascular disease includes conditions like carotid artery disease, aneurysms, and dissections—issues that disrupt blood flow to the brain and increase the risk of stroke.
What Causes Cerebrovascular Disease?
Modifiable Risk Factors:

Non-Modifiable Risk Factors:

Why Timely Treatment Matters
Left untreated, cerebrovascular disease can cause stroke, long-term disability, or even death. Early care can prevent these outcomes.
