Ruptured breast implants, MRI
Ruptured breast implants. Coloured magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of ruptures in both of a womans breast implants (red). These are intracapsular ruptures, the most common type. The material within the implants (either saline or silicone) has breached the implant membrane, but not the capsule of fibrous scar tissue (green) that forms around the implant after surgery. This type of rupture is characterised by the linguini sign, thin curvy lines (blue) seen within the implant on MRI scans. These lines are the sections of the implants membranes that have collapsed. Approximately fifty per cent of all implants rupture after twelve years

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases a coloured magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of ruptured breast implants in a woman's chest. The image reveals the most common type of rupture known as intracapsular, where the material within the implants breaches the implant membrane but not the fibrous scar tissue capsule that forms around them post-surgery. The vivid red hues highlight these ruptures, while contrasting green shades emphasize the intact capsule surrounding each implant. Notably, thin curvy lines resembling linguini noodles can be observed within the implants on MRI scans, representing collapsed sections of their membranes – an identifying characteristic of this type of rupture. It is astonishing to learn that approximately fifty percent of all breast implants rupture after twelve years. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of both the prevalence and potential consequences associated with artificial enhancements in plastic surgery. While medical advancements have allowed for prosthetic augmentation using either saline or silicone-filled implants, this image sheds light on their inherent risks. The leakage or leaking resulting from such ruptures underscores why regular diagnostics like MRI scans are crucial for monitoring implant integrity. Intriguingly captured by Science Photo Library, this thought-provoking image invites contemplation about our society's pursuit of perfection and its impact on human bodies through medical interventions.
