Thickened skull, MRI scan
Thickened skull. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of an axial section through the head of a 22-year-old patient, showing thickening of the trabecular (spongy) bone of the skull. This condition is suggestive of a blood disorder such as thalassemia or sickle-cell disease

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases a fascinating medical condition within the human body. The image captures an axial section through the head of a 22-year-old patient, revealing a thickening of the trabecular (spongy) bone in their skull. This abnormality suggests the presence of a blood disorder such as thalassemia or sickle-cell disease. The stark contrast against the black background emphasizes the intricate details of this diseased skull, drawing attention to its deformed and unhealthy appearance. Through diagnostic imaging techniques like magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), medical professionals can identify and diagnose conditions that affect both bone structure and blood health. The monochrome aesthetic adds to the overall impact of this photograph, highlighting not only its scientific significance but also its artistic appeal. By isolating this specific sectioned view, viewers are able to appreciate the complexity of our skeletal system while gaining insight into hematological disorders that can have profound effects on one's health. As we delve into osteology and haematology realms with this thought-provoking image, it serves as a reminder of how radiography plays an essential role in modern healthcare by enabling accurate diagnoses for patients suffering from various conditions.
