12/14/08 - MU - Ommaya X-Ray

Wow, I just made some duplicate copies of a CD-Rom with various imaging types (MRI, CT Scans, my flow study) and I found something interesting. I never looked at the CT ("cat") scan images, because they tend to be lower resolution than MRIs. Well, I was making some copies, and I decided to look at them. There appears to be an X-Ray taken soon after my Ommaya Reservoir surgery. I think I may have still been under anesthesia, because my memory of it is foggy. Here it is...
