Wait. Maybe this is why you *only* visit http://digg.com/submit when you're drunk/high. I can't decide. - callisto1002, on 08/21/2008, -1/+34yay bong hits!
- SugarCoatedSalt, on 08/22/2008, -2/+31That's what she said.
- joegibes, on 08/22/2008, -0/+28I work at a talking shoe store so I'm really getting a reply out of these kicks.
- GothAlice, on 08/22/2008, -1/+28It's never lupus.
- vickers500, on 08/22/2008, -3/+28LUPUS!
- synystar, on 08/22/2008, -0/+24The mucus retention cyst? Nothing to worry about, they're very common. I know that because I'm an expert....at using Google.
I also learned that it damn well better not be a mucoceles, as some doctors mistakenly call them. Those are little fluid filled sacs that slowly fill up with mucus and then expand slowly-- pushing, compressing, eroding bone and moving structures around them. These mucoceles may expand and push into the eye socket (the orbit) or push into the brain or nose. That's a bit ***** up. - roxgod666, on 08/22/2008, -2/+21you dont have to tell me twice

- mcbutterbuns, on 08/22/2008, -1/+18MRI != X-Ray
- badwithcomputer, on 08/21/2008, -2/+17actually, i just typed that out from memory. it's not the hardest link to remember.
- mavrick45, on 08/22/2008, -4/+19I work at a hospital so im really getting a kick out of these replies
- xirtap, on 08/22/2008, -0/+13Except that one time when they treated it without know it was lupus.
- gitboxgreg, on 08/22/2008, -4/+17These brain scans are boring, lets go stare at Cuddy's breasts.
- synystar, on 08/22/2008, -1/+14You could see for yourself....just print em and grab your box of crayons.
- fascistpig, on 08/21/2008, -2/+15Where are the fried eggs?
- saxamaphone, on 08/22/2008, -2/+14It's not a too-mah!
- Judacious, on 08/22/2008, -0/+11I like his eyeballs
- NewGTGuy, on 08/22/2008, -1/+12Just a fun fact-- Did you know that the cross section of the brain is symbolized by the "eye of Horus" (your first pic)?
Check it -> http://www.tattoosymbol.com/images/symbols/eye-hor ...
It supposedly symbolizes your third eye, AKA the Pineal gland. - travis1982, on 08/22/2008, -0/+10That was surprisingly original.
- ZackScott, on 08/21/2008, -4/+14This is great. For far too long has humanity not been in the world of the brain. Only recently have we begun unraveling it. Still, it is not enough, and each progression will be marked. What I loved about these photos is that it shows what access we have today. Someone (a random guy) and his brain all up in photos via MRI.
A technical wizardry was truly at the works here. And what would we do in a world without education? Can you imagine one day in which we can image the brain down to details in which we can track thoughts? Is it a scary world? It depends on who is imagining? We can see the pulses of the brainjuice sending electrifying messages between the manifolds, and yet we can not yet assemble them onto an LCD like our brain can put together in thoughts. But one day...wow... - crazyjake, on 08/22/2008, -0/+8*citation needed
- guanako, on 08/21/2008, -0/+8can u imagine how weird it wold look it if it was color =
- fremeer, on 08/22/2008, -0/+7really $600 for an x-ray? ***** its free here in aus if you get it done at a hospital or bulk-billing place.
- mecharabbit, on 08/22/2008, -0/+7No, he just stepped on a jellyfish when he was vacationing in the Cayman Islands.
- ajimmykid, on 08/22/2008, -0/+6uh.. actually as a college student (undergrad or grad), you can sign up for fMRI studies and you actually get paid to do them. as a freebie, they send you photos of your brain. it's actually really easy, and you get paid about $30/hr
I'm also a student at Stanford, and I just did one last night. - kd7swh, on 08/22/2008, -0/+6those are different layers of the scan. it isn't decomposition.
- alyas404, on 08/22/2008, -3/+9ITS NOT A TUMAH!!!
- JasonHilton, on 08/22/2008, -0/+6No. That's each individual layer, arranged into an animation, looking from the top down.
- mavrick45, on 08/22/2008, -0/+5I chortled audibly
- patpl22391, on 08/22/2008, -2/+7Considering how much trash that badwithcomputer submits, I'm certainly not surprised he has it memorized.
- synystar, on 08/22/2008, -0/+5He accidentally dropped 'em. "This is your brain.... oh *****. Oops! Uh....this is your brain on the kitchen floor."
- ronjohnson, on 08/21/2008, -5/+10Why is it so small?
- synystar, on 08/22/2008, -0/+5"Now there is a terminology problem around mucoceles. Some doctors call “cysts” in the sinuses “mucoceles”, when in fact they are just cysts. So, as a patient, it is important to know the difference between a “mucus retention cyst” and a mucocele. A mucus retention cyst is just a cyst along the sinus lining. It’s a fluid filled sac, yes, but a retention cyst does not expand and push into the eye socket, brain, or nose and it doesn’t cause problems in the vast majority of cases. So a cyst is very different than a mucocele." http://sinus411.org/4%20surgical%20treatment%20pag ...
I'm not a doctor and I must admit that the website I'm citing doesn't look like it was created by someone who knows how to design web sites. But that's not uncommon for intellectuals. It sounds like whoever wrote that knows what they are talking about. Of course, whoever wrote that could be completely wrong. But it's late and I'm not concerned so I won't bother researching it myself. - inactive, on 08/22/2008, -0/+5$600.... I call *****.
- MatthewK, on 08/22/2008, -0/+5"They're made out of meat??"
http://www.eastoftheweb.com/short-stories/UBooks/T ... - oveedrx, on 08/22/2008, -1/+6that's what she said
- ZMann, on 08/22/2008, -1/+5Sounds like he's in school... maybe for radiology.
Why else is he talking about dorm rooms, bong hits, and pictures of brain scans and x-rays everywhere? - inactive, on 08/22/2008, -1/+5I audibly chortled while being surprised as the originality of the talking shoe which owns a store in downtown east las vegas.
- inactive, on 08/22/2008, -0/+4for the record - infortunately, bitches.
- aussieNickuss, on 08/22/2008, -0/+4I had to pay $150 for two dental x-rays.......but that's only because MediCare only covers dental a small amount (if at all?).
- blackeagle613, on 08/22/2008, -0/+4correct, an MRI is usually around 5k
- identifiedlogo, on 08/22/2008, -0/+4Ok,you guys better be faking, because you are freaking me out.
- Nboy514, on 08/21/2008, -0/+4"brainjuice sending electrifying messages between the manifolds" Love it. lol
/Neuroscientist - oveedrx, on 08/22/2008, -2/+6I think those are different layers? not sure so digg me down
- maticus, on 08/22/2008, -2/+5Cool pics. In the end, we're all just meat.
- satellitegml, on 08/22/2008, -2/+5This mad me think of..
"Gee, Brain. What are we going to do tonight? The same thing we do every night, Pinky. Try to take over the world!" - LemonChicken, on 08/22/2008, -1/+4I volunteer at a hospital near my home as a result of being arrested earlier this year for marijuana possession. I met an old lady there with lupus and its a hell of a disease. Chronic pain. She said she ran out of medicine. I just wanted to give her some chronic.
Yes, I get the House reference. - inactive, on 08/22/2008, -0/+3One day I hope to be a man.
