Artery damage, MRA scan
Artery damage. Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) scan of the neck of a 23-year-old male motorcycle crash victim. Dissection of the right internal carotid artery (left) has resulted in narrowing of the proximal right internal carotid artery. This is a result of damage to the muscular layers within the wall of the vessel. Arterial blood is forced between the muscular lining, causing the narrowing. These injuries, along with the severe brain injuries sustained, proved fatal

EDITORS COMMENTS
This monochrome print captures the devastating consequences of a motorcycle crash on the arterial system of a 23-year-old male victim. The image showcases an MRA scan of the neck, revealing severe artery damage resulting from a dissection in the right internal carotid artery. The muscular layers within the vessel's wall have been compromised, leading to significant narrowing at its proximal end. This constriction occurs as arterial blood is forced between the damaged muscle lining, causing obstruction and reduced blood flow. Unfortunately, these injuries proved fatal for this young man due to associated severe brain trauma sustained during the accident. This diagnostic imaging technique provides crucial insights into the extent and nature of injuries caused by road traffic accidents. By visualizing abnormalities in blood vessels like stenosis or dissections, medical professionals can make accurate diagnoses and determine appropriate treatment plans. The somber tone conveyed by this photograph serves as a stark reminder of both the fragility and resilience of our bodies. It highlights not only the physical toll that such accidents can take but also underscores society's ongoing need for improved safety measures on our roads.
