Thrombophlebitis, angiogram C018 / 0529
Thrombophlebitis. Coloured angiogram (X-ray) of the brain of a 28 year old female patient who had thrombophelibitis of the superior sagittal sinus (indicated by arrows). Thrombophlebitis is inflammation of a blood vessel associated with a blood clot. Here the blood clot has interrupted the blood flow along the superior sagittal sinus. The patient was taking the contraceptive pill, which can increase the risk of blood clot formation

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of thrombophlebitis, a condition characterized by inflammation and blood clot formation in a blood vessel. The coloured angiogram, obtained through an X-ray of the brain, reveals the distressing effects of this disorder on a 28-year-old female patient. Specifically, it highlights the interruption of blood flow along the superior sagittal sinus, which is indicated by arrows. The image sheds light on how certain factors can contribute to thrombophlebitis. In this case, the patient had been taking oral contraceptives, known to increase the risk of blood clot formation. This serves as a reminder that even seemingly harmless medications can have unintended consequences on our health. Through its vivid depiction of inflamed vessels and disrupted circulation within the cerebral region, this photograph underscores both the complexity and potential dangers associated with thrombophlebitis. It offers valuable insights into diagnostic procedures such as angiography and radiography that aid medical professionals in identifying and treating this condition. Overall, ZEPHYR/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY's powerful visual representation not only educates viewers about thrombophlebitis but also emphasizes the importance of understanding our bodies' responses to various stimuli. By capturing this moment in time with exceptional clarity and detail, it invites contemplation on human health while showcasing scientific advancements in imaging technology.
