mri faces

I finally got onto a Windows machine to look at my MRI DVD. Surely, medical imaging software can be made cross-platform, or am I at the mercy of emulators? And, are you telling me that all doctors (well, radiologists and specialists) run Windows? Nooooo.....

Anyway, some interesting visuals into my inner workings (and how a knee should not look):


This little piggy went to market...



There are muscles (and tendons) amongst the flab (see leg ham image)...



Who would have thought my knee had a face?



Maybe this is why I couldn't straighten my leg, and farewell my dear ACL...



But, at least the PCL is ok!

I am amazed at how medical imaging and diagnostic tools have technologically progressed to show fascinating detail; I am accident-prone enough to almost be able to reconstruct my entire body from medical diagnostic images in their various forms - I really do have to thank Medicare for assisting me to grow my collection!
