Brain haemorrhage,coloured computed tomography (CT) scan. The front of the brain is at top,and a large mass of blood (haematoma,pink) is seen at upper left in the frontal lobe. Bleeding (haemorrhage) in the brain occurs when a blood vessel,such as an artery,ruptures. It may be caused by a head injury,high blood pressure or vascular disease. In this case a tree fell on the patient's head. The area of the brain supplied by the ruptured artery may die due to lack of oxygenated blood,leading to a stroke | |
