DR. PABLO IRIMIA
SPECIALIST IN NEUROLOGY
The Cerebrovascular Diseases Unit has a multidisciplinary team of specialists in urgent care in the acute moment of stroke or ictus, and in the treatment of its follow-up.
For this purpose, they have the most advanced technology (neuroimaging tests by magnetic resonance, TAC, PET, ultrasonography - TSA ecodoppler, transcranial Doppler) to guarantee a rapid diagnosis.
Stroke is the leading cause of death in women and one of the most important conditions of permanent disability in adults.
All patients with symptoms of having suffered a cerebrovascular disease or who present vascular risk factors in the Department of Neurology are offered the possibility of participating in the Comprehensive Vascular Medicine Program (which includes angio-CT and whole body PET). This allows the patient to obtain a complete vascular study, thanks to which it is possible to detect possible vascular lesions early.
From our Unit we collaborate with the Cardiovascular Diseases Program at Cima to advance in the research and treatment of these diseases.
