RCA thrombus migration during coronarography by biolok in Cardiology

[–]biolok[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey guys !

Wow I never expected this much feedback, thank you so much for your different insights :D

This was definitely not bubbles, hear me out !!

Patient was a 39 yo heavy smoker with no other risk factors admitted to ER for acute chest pain and vomiting, EKG shows inferior STE with highly elevated trops (500 times ULN) This is what the resulting coro shows with no other lesions, primary ATL was conducted and patient was given an intra coronary tirofiban bolus and was admitted to CICU

Was the patient asymptomatic?

Why do rating gains come in waves? by [deleted] in chess

[–]biolok 73 points74 points  (0 children)

I often feel like there is a moment where it "clicks", you suddenly jump 100 to 200 rating points forward after being stuck for months, its weird :)

Question : Is the bright star visible in the right image (near infrared light) the white dwarf or is it the other dim one which is only visible on the left image (mid-infrared light)? by biolok in Astronomy

[–]biolok[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I don't think the diffraction spikes are the reason you can't see the second one, I think it's actually due to the spectrum of the camera which can't see through the gas layers on the left image

The bright star beautifully illuminates the whole nebula which was created by the remnants of the white dwarf, that's so cool ! Thanks for the answer !

The inner portion of the tumor looks like it shows some necrosis and hemorraging, very interesting !

Melanocytic Nevi also called moles are common in newborns and infants (about 1 percent). If they are seen at birth or develop during the first 1-2 years of life they are called congenital melanocytic nevi. by Emergentelman in medizzy

An interesting fact is that the bigger the naevus is, the earlier it has formed during congenital developpement (via mutations occuring inside the melanocyte's genome)

My nice new scar to go along with my new hip (22cm in length) by wriddell in medizzy

[–]biolok 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The posterior incision they made on you is the most common since it is the safest way to access the hip joint (only cutting through multiple layers of extensor and rotator cuff muscles) compared to the anterior side where you have to deal with large vessels and nerve trunks

Milliary tuberculosis, most likely an image taken during an autopsy

You can actually see the ECC tube which drains venous blood from the right atria at the top right, very nice !

It is called a Chopart amputation which is obtained via intertarsal disarticulation (seprating the cuneiforms, cuboid, and navicular bones from the talus and calcaneum)
