Not Quite Anatomy

Years ago, I took this CT scan while working in a neuro ICU. The heart shaped hydrocephalus is both striking and unsettling. It’s a contrast, especially since the patient tragically didn’t survive. I felt this image belonged here because it shows that eerie connection between beauty and mortality.

Tombstone for one of the victims of one of the deadliest tragedies in New York City's history, The Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire. The practice of placing stones on Jewish graves is a long-standing tradition that symbolizes respect, honor, and remembrance.
