Thrombophlebitis in the brain, MRI scans
Thrombophlebitis in the brain. Coloured magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) angiograms comparing the blood vessels (white) of the brain and neck in a healthy 43-year-old (left), with those of a 48-year-old (right) 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 print from Science Photo Library showcases a comparison of MRI scans depicting thrombophlebitis in the brain. The image presents two contrasting profiles, one belonging to a healthy 43-year-old individual on the left and the other representing a 48-year-old suffering from thrombophlebitis on the right. By examining the coloured magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) angiograms, we can observe an intricate network of blood vessels in white that supply both the brain and neck. The diseased profile exhibits thrombophlebitis affecting multiple veins including the superior sagittal sinus, straight sinus, and lateral sinus veins. Thrombophlebitis refers to inflammation of these veins caused by blood clots known as thrombi. This visual representation allows for a comprehensive comparison between normal and abnormal conditions within our circulatory system. It provides valuable insights into how this disorder affects arterial anatomy and highlights significant differences when compared to a healthy individual's vascular system. With its detailed sections showcasing various angles of cranial vasculature, this image serves as an invaluable resource for medical professionals studying cerebral health or researching related disorders. Its radiological precision offers viewers an opportunity to delve deeper into understanding thrombosis-related conditions such as phlebitis while appreciating the complexity of our own anatomical makeup.
