Post-operative CT Scan

Here is one of the CT images that was taken right after surgery.  This image, if you compare it to the MRI images, shows just how quickly the brain re-expands to fill in the space left by the tumor that was removed. The neurologist, during her rounds the evening of the surgery, indicated that the brain would fully expand with 12 hours or so.  It will be interesting to see what the first post-op MRI images look like.
