Doppler ultrasound scan of carotid artery stenosis
Carotid stenosis. Doppler ultrasound scan showing stenosis (narrowing) of the carotid artery in the neck. The carotid artery (red) is the main vessel supplying blood to the brain. Its normal width is seen at the lower left of the scan. The red colour represents normal smooth blood flow. At centre, a grey intrusion is seen into the arterys width. Blood flow in this area is shown in a variety of colours, indicating abnormal blood flow. The reduced width means that blood cannot reach the brain in sufficient volume, which may lead to a stroke. The narrowing may be due to a fatty deposit in the artery (atheroma) or a blood clot (thrombus). Surgery may help widen the artery

17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases a Doppler ultrasound scan of carotid artery stenosis, revealing the potentially dangerous narrowing of this vital blood vessel in the neck. The carotid artery, depicted in vibrant red at the lower left of the image, is responsible for supplying blood to the brain. Its normal width and smooth blood flow are evident here. However, at the center of the scan, a disconcerting grey intrusion can be observed encroaching upon the artery's width. In this area, abnormal blood flow is indicated by an array of colors. This reduction in width restricts sufficient blood volume from reaching the brain and poses a significant risk for stroke. The underlying causes behind such narrowing may include fatty deposits known as atheroma or even blood clots called thrombus. To address this condition and widen the affected artery, surgery may be required. Science Photo Library has expertly captured this visually striking representation that highlights both medical knowledge and technological advancements within healthcare. By providing invaluable insights into conditions like carotid stenosis through cutting-edge techniques such as Doppler ultrasound scans, medical professionals can better diagnose and treat vascular diseases while safeguarding patients' well-being.
