ECG trace and mri brain scan, artwork
Brain anatomy. Coloured magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of the human head from the side. The sagittal scan has halved the brain, revealing the internal anatomy. The brains major area (across top and at the rear) is the cerebrum. This includes the folds of the outer layer (cerebral cortex) that produces memory, language and conscious movement. The brainstem (centre), at the base of the brain, runs down and connects to the spinal cord in the neck. It controls subconscious functions like breathing. The cerebellum (round area, right of the brainstem) controls balance, as well as muscle co-ordination. Skull, neck and face structures (blurred) are also seen

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork by Alfred Pasieka showcases the intricate connection between the human brain and cardiovascular system. The print features a colorful magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of the side view of a human head, revealing the internal anatomy in stunning detail. The focal point of this image is the cerebrum, which spans across the top and rear of the brain. This vital area houses folds of the outer layer known as cerebral cortex, responsible for memory, language, and conscious movement. Moving towards the center, we encounter the brainstem - a crucial component that connects to our spinal cord in the neck region. It controls essential subconscious functions like breathing. To its right lies another significant region called cerebellum - responsible for maintaining balance and coordinating muscle movements. As we explore further into this mesmerizing artwork, blurred structures representing skull, neck, and face come into view. Combining an ECG trace with an MRI scan adds another layer of complexity to this piece. It symbolizes how closely intertwined our cardiac health is with brain function. The mention of terms like stroke, haemorrhage, heart attack highlights their relevance within this context. Alfred Pasieka's masterpiece not only captures scientific precision but also serves as a reminder of our body's incredible complexity and interconnectedness between different systems.
