About this photo
A close-up surgical photo shows a large, lobulated brain tumor held between two gloved fingers next to an open craniotomy site. The exposed brain tissue and surrounding dura are visible inside the skull cavity, with blood and surgical instruments still in place. The image has a raw, clinical documentary style with vivid reds from blood against pale brain matter and blue surgical drapes. The tumor’s convoluted, fleshy surface and size relative to the cranial opening stand out. No on-screen text or watermarks are present.
