In Ischaemic strokes, there is some sort of blockage either in the major vessels that take the blood (this is called large vessel atherosclerosis) to the brain or even in the smaller vessels (called small vessel occlusion). Conditions such as AFib are often said to be associated with stroke as a consequence of cardioembolism.
