Glioblastoma brain cancer, CT scan
Glioblastoma brain cancer. Coloured computed tomography (CT) scan of a section through the brain of an 84-year-old female patient with glioblastoma (blue, top). Glioblastoma is the most aggressive form of brain cancer. Treatment involves surgery, after which chemotherapy and radiation therapy are used. However, the cancer usually reoccurs despite treatment and the most common length of survival after diagnosis is 12-15 months. Without treatment, survival is typically 3 months

EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures the devastating reality of glioblastoma brain cancer, showcasing a coloured computed tomography (CT) scan of an 84-year-old female patient's brain. The vibrant blue hues highlight the presence of this aggressive form of brain cancer known as glioblastoma. Glioblastoma is notorious for its relentless nature, making it one of the most challenging cancers to treat. Surgical intervention is often necessary, followed by chemotherapy and radiation therapy in an attempt to combat the disease. Unfortunately, despite these efforts, glioblastoma frequently reoccurs, leaving patients with a limited prognosis. The image serves as a somber reminder that even with treatment, survival after diagnosis typically ranges from 12 to 15 months. Without any medical intervention, survival time drastically reduces to just three months. The photograph not only showcases the biological aspect of this condition but also evokes emotions related to aging and mortality. The age range mentioned in the caption further emphasizes that no one is exempt from such life-threatening illnesses. As we gaze upon this thought-provoking artwork by Dr P. Marazzi from Science Photo Libr at Fine Art Storehouse, we are reminded of the urgent need for continued research and advancements in treating glioblastoma and other forms of brain cancer.
