Photographic Print : Lung infection
Photo Prints from Science Photo Library
Lung infection
Lung infection. Coloured chest X-ray of a patient with sickle cell disease (SCD), an inherited blood disorder. SCD has many symptoms including pulmonary complications. Here, the lower lobe of one lung has become fluid-filled (consolidated) due to an infection, resulting in a characteristic cloudy appearance of the lung spaces on the X-ray (blue, right). The vertebrae (red blocks) have been softened due to the overgrowth (hyperplasia) of bone marrow and the invertebral disks have pushed into them, causing the vertebrae to become biconcave in shape

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the devastating effects of sickle cell disease (SCD), an inherited blood disorder, on a patient's lungs. The coloured chest X-ray reveals the lower lobe of one lung filled with fluid due to a severe infection, resulting in a distinct cloudy appearance. The blue hues highlight the consolidated lung spaces caused by this pulmonary complication. However, SCD doesn't stop there. As depicted by the red blocks representing vertebrae, the overgrowth of bone marrow leads to their softening and deformation. The pressure exerted by intervertebral disks causes these vertebrae to become biconcave in shape, contributing to immense pain and discomfort for the patient. This image serves as a powerful reminder of both the physical and emotional toll that SCD takes on individuals affected by it. It highlights not only the painful symptoms but also emphasizes how this condition can affect various aspects of daily life. Through medical advancements and ongoing research efforts, scientists strive to better understand SCD and develop effective treatments for its complications such as lung infections and bone abnormalities. This thought-provoking photograph from Science Photo Library sheds light on these challenges while inspiring hope for improved management strategies in the future.
