Thrombophlebitis in the brain, 3D CT scan
Thrombophlebitis in the brain. Coloured 3D computed tomography (CT) angiogram of the blood vessels (blue) in the brain of a 48-year-old with thrombophlebitis of the superior sagittal sinus, straight sinus and lateral sinus veins. Thrombophlebitis is phlebitis (vein inflammation) related to a thrombus (blood clot)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This 3D CT scan print showcases the intricate network of blood vessels in the brain, but with a dark twist. The vibrant blue veins stand out against the black background, revealing a troubling condition known as thrombophlebitis. This disease involves inflammation of the veins due to the presence of blood clots. The image focuses on a 48-year-old patient who is suffering from thrombophlebitis in multiple areas of their brain, specifically affecting the superior sagittal sinus, straight sinus, and lateral sinus veins. These crucial pathways for blood supply have become diseased and abnormal. Through this radiographic marvel, we gain insight into the complexity of our circulatory system and its vulnerability to disorders. The detailed anatomy of arteries and veins within our cranial region is brought to life through advanced computed tomography technology. As we examine this cut-out representation of the human body's vascular system, it becomes evident that thrombosis can strike at any age. Even individuals in their forties are not immune to such conditions. Science Photo Library has once again provided us with an extraordinary visual tool for understanding medical ailments like thrombophlebitis. By shedding light on these diseases through stunning imagery, they contribute immensely to scientific research and education worldwide.
