Breast implant calcification, X-ray
Breast implant calcification. Coloured mammogram (breast X-ray) of calcification around the borders of a breast implant (pink) in a womans breast (red) as seen from the side. Breast implants of silicone gel are implanted for cosmetic purposes, or to reconstruct a breast following surgery. One of the possible side-effects is scarring and the deposition of calcium in the tissue surrounding the implant. This can make removal difficult

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate details of breast implant calcification. The coloured mammogram reveals a woman's breast, with a prominent pink border representing the calcification around the edges of a silicone gel breast implant. These implants are commonly used for cosmetic purposes or to reconstruct breasts after surgery. However, as depicted in this image, one potential side-effect is scarring and calcium deposition in the surrounding tissue. This can pose challenges when it comes to removal procedures. The profile view allows us to appreciate how these artificial implants interact with human anatomy, highlighting the delicate balance between medicine and aesthetics. The diagnostic technique employed here is mammography, an essential screening tool for detecting various conditions related to breast health care. By utilizing X-ray technology, radiographs capture detailed images of tissues and organs within our bodies. Breast implant calcification serves as a reminder that medical interventions may have unintended consequences on our physiology. It underscores the importance of thorough diagnosis and understanding potential risks before undergoing any procedure involving prostheses like silicone gel implants. Science Photo Library continues its mission by providing valuable visual resources that aid in research, education, and medical advancements without commercial interests overshadowing their contributions.
