Tissue death as a result of ischaemia.
Tissue death resulting from inadequate oxygenation due to reduction or lack of blood flow to the area.
the presence of a localized area of necrotic tissue, produced by inadequate oxygenation of the tissue
Localized area of tissue that is dying or dead having been deprived of blood supply.
An area of tissue that is damaged or dead due to inadequate blood supply.
the cutting off of blood supply.
Lack of blood suppply (and thus oxygen) to an organ or tissue resulting in tissue death.
a loss of blood supply that can result in the death of cells
An area of tissue death, resulting from an obstruction of local circulation.
a localized area of decay in a tissue, vessel, organ or part.
Describes an area of tissue that has recently died as a result of the sudden loss of its blood supply.
Death of a part of an organ, such as the brain, due to lack of oxygen and other nutrients.
The death of tissue that dies as a result of a loss of the supply of blood.
a blockage of blood vessels, usually caused by a blood clot.
Cell death due to insufficient supply of oxygen.
Localized necrosis resulting from obstruction of the blood supply. Myocardial infarction is another name for a heart attack.
Death of tissue due to a lack of blood, usually caused by a blockage of an associated artery.
An area of cell death (e.g. part of the brain) as a result of being deprived of its blood supply
Formation of an area of tissue death due to a lack of oxygen.
An area of deadened tissue resulting from the obstruction of blood circulation that normally nourishes tissue. A myocardial infarction refers to myocardial tissue damage due to interrupted blood flow through a coronary artery. A myocardial infarction is frequently referred to as a heart attack.
Death of tissue due to lack of oxygen.
an area of necrosis (death) in a tissue or organ resulting from obstruction of the local circulation by a thrombus or embolus
a region of damaged tissue resulting from a decrease of oxygenated blood
death of living cells because of insufficient blood supply
Area of tissue which is dead or severly damaged, usually due to lack of blood supply.
necrosis (tissue death) due to upstream obstruction of its arterial blood supply. It is most closely associated with atherosclerosis ("hardening of the arteries") and the sudden event we call a "heart attack".
A small localized area of dead tissue caused by an inadequate blood supply.
Death of a tissue from prolonged lack of oxygen (a heart attack is called a myocardial infarction)
A sudden loss of blood supply to tissue, causing the formation of an infarct.
muscle or tissue death resulting from a loss/interruption in supply of oxygenated blood.
The actual closure of blood supply, usually by a blood clot ( embolism) that blocks the artery supplying the (part of an) organ or tissue.
death of tissue from loss of blood supply
Cardiac or cerebral tissue death due to failure of blood supply to the area usually caused by a blood clot.
Area of damaged or dead tissue; in a stroke, brain infarction is caused by impaired blood flow.
is tissue death caused by oxygen deprivation. When it occurs in the heart, it is called a myocardial infarction. The common term is heart attack.
(noun) death of some tissue, most often the result of inadequate blood supply caused by a bloodclot.
Tissue death due to lack of oxygen-rich blood, necrosis of tissue due to upstream obstruction of its arterial blood supply.
In medicine, an infarction is when an artery is blocked by some obstruction (e.g. a blood clot or cholesterol deposit), causing necrosis. Infarctions are most closely associated with atherosclerosis. When an atherosclerotic plaque ruptures, a thrombus forms on the surface, occluding the blood flow and occasionally forming an embolus that occludes other blood vessels downstream.
