Update #2 : After the CT scan
by Amber
After 4 hours at OHSU, we got our Ultrasound and CT scan. The CT scan is pretty amazing. I would encourage anyone that ever gets a CT scan to ask for the images to be put on a disc. Since the images require a special viewer, they bundle it on a CD for you. Then you can create videos/pictures of the 3d image and apply transparent colors to specific data types(ie Muscle tissue, bone structures, air bubbles and more if your computer can handle it or may require XP pro) So while playing around with Owain's CT scan data, I compiled a few video clips of his internals. I am not a Doctor, Surgeon, Radiologist, or trained in the medical field what so ever, but from my exploration in Owain's body I found a couple things that made me *gulp. I am not saying that Owain will definitely need surgery, but from what I pulled from the data, it looks much more likely(to someone untrained in the medical field). Again we are waiting official word from our Surgeon, Dr.Zigman. We should know by tomorrow.
here are the vids(don't be too concerned since I do not have the credentials to make a diagnosis):
#1(shows a slice the questionable area of his left lung)
#2(same section as #1 w/ different transparency preset)
#3(same section as #1/2 w/ different transparency preset I belive the little streak is the patch)
The little box in the lower left is a position reference
L=Left
R=Right
A=Anterior(front)
P=Posterior(back)
S= Superior(top)
