Brain tumour, DTI modelling C017 / 7060
Brain tumour. Computer artwork of nerve pathways (coloured) in a brain with a tumour (white/red, upper right). The brain is seen from the front. Brain tumours can be benign or malignant (cancerous). They can cause seizures, headaches, and memory and personality changes due to the growth of the tumour. This artwork shows the fibres as they would appear using 3D diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This technique, also called tractography, measures the direction of water diffusion, which in the brain reveals the orientation of nerve fibres

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate network of nerve pathways within a brain affected by a tumour. The computer artwork, created using 3D diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), vividly displays the coloured fibres that make up these neural tracts. Against a striking black background, the white and red tumour stands out prominently in the upper right corner. Brain tumours can be either benign or malignant, with potentially devastating consequences for individuals. Seizures, headaches, memory loss, and personality changes are just some of the symptoms that may arise due to the growth of these abnormal masses. This image serves as a powerful visual representation of this complex condition. The DTI technique used to create this artwork measures water diffusion within the brain to reveal the orientation of nerve fibres. Also known as tractography, it provides valuable insights into how these pathways are affected by disease and offers crucial information for diagnosis and treatment planning. As we delve into this mesmerizing portrayal of neurology and pathology combined, we gain an appreciation for both its scientific significance and artistic beauty. It reminds us of our ongoing quest to understand and combat diseases affecting our most vital organ – the human brain.
