I had stroke on my first birth day due to a artery in the brain didn't fully develope?

1)The doctor tells me that I have a water pocket on the right side of my brain. What is that?
2)What machines or test today can detect a water pocket in my brain
3)Is their any cure or treatment for a water pocket in the brain

1] hydrocephalus is the medical term for 'water on the brain', it's actually a build up of cerebrospinal fluid. [ which can be caused by a hemorrhage ]
2] any 'imaging techniques', ultrasound, C.T. or M.R.I. can be used to detect this.
3] if the build up of fluid is severe enough to cause a problem it can be treated by an operation to insert a 'shunt', a valve which allows the fluid to 'escape' and be disposed of by the body.
