AB Stroke  is  the  third  most  common  cause  of  death  in  most  industrialized  countries  with  an  estimated  global  mortality  of  4.7  million  per  year.  Each  year,  about  700  000  people  suffer  new  or  recurrent  stroke.  It  is  the  major  cause  of  serious,  long-term  disability,  with  more  than  1  100  000  American  adults  reporting  functional  limitations  resulting  from  stroke.  Also,  recent  evidence  suggests  that  the  presence  of  small  strokes  or  of  local  chronic  ischemia  may  be  much  more  common  in  aging  populations  than  previously  thought.
