ooh neat. wanna swap brain scans? I have an MRI from a few years ago that I always want to show people but have no way to tactfully say "wanna see pics of my brain" to people who aren't my friends in med school

So, I'm totally down to look at peoples brain-scans. Unfortunately I have a pacemaker so I'm not likely to get one myself any time soon.

Found em! I was searching for "brain" instead of "MRI" in my files.

sultry brain stem

Any med-student things to make of those? Or are they pretty much just normal-looking brains?

I plan on looking for Toxoplasma gondii cysts and see if I have that cat-loving disease or if the obsession is purely psychological.

They were looking for anything that might be causing migraines. Came back "very healthy"

Unfortunately I wasn't the student to go in the MEG chair this round, but I'm hoping to get myself imaged in the coming MRI section. I may poke you with those images if they let me keep them!

i was super bummed they didn't let me see my gallbladder when they took it out but i was also hella doped up so i probably wouldn't have appreciated it
