Framed Print : Slipped disc, CT scan
Framed Photos from Science Photo Library
Slipped disc, CT scan
Slipped disc. Coloured computed tomography (CT) scan of an axial section through an inter- vertebral disc (orange) showing herniation. The disc has ruptured and expanded past the vertebra (black circle) and is putting pressure on the spinal cord (green, centre). The intervertebral discs separate the bones of the spine (vertebrae) from each other and cushion them. If one becomes displaced and puts pressure on surrounding nerves, it can cause back pain and even paralysis. Bed rest is the best treatment, although surgery may be required if the symptoms are severe

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases a coloured computed tomography (CT) scan of a slipped disc, revealing the intricate details of this spinal condition. The image depicts an axial section through an intervertebral disc, highlighted in vibrant orange hues, which has herniated beyond its normal boundaries. As seen by the black circle surrounding it, the protruding disc has expanded past the vertebra and is exerting pressure on the delicate spinal cord at its center, depicted in striking green. Intervertebral discs play a crucial role in separating and cushioning the bones of our spine. However, when one becomes displaced like shown here, it can lead to excruciating back pain and even paralysis if surrounding nerves are compressed. While bed rest is often recommended as an initial treatment for such cases, severe symptoms may necessitate surgical intervention. This thought-provoking visual emphasizes both the complexity and fragility of our spinal health. It serves as a powerful reminder that conditions like slipped discs can significantly impact our well-being and mobility. Through advanced diagnostic techniques like CT scans showcased here, medical professionals gain invaluable insights into identifying and understanding disorders affecting our backbone. Science Photo Library continues to provide exceptional imagery that bridges science with artistry while facilitating education about various medical conditions – ultimately contributing to advancements in healthcare worldwide.
