Photo #1
Was driving home in the late afternoon, and captivated by the cityscape - with building basked in luminous orange glow, and overhead brigde criss-crossing across busy road underneath. Quickly took out my handphone when my car was in stationary mode at traffic light junction (waiting for traffic lights to turn green).
An adolescent boy was recently admitted for severe headaches. Neuroimaging done showed the presence of tortuous basilar artery (a major blood vessel suppling the brainstem).
The CT angiogram performed showing the circle of Willies and its tributary, and looped basilar artery (which is supposed to be straight in normal individuals) was simply mind-boggling.
Hands down to the amazing advance in neuro-radiology in recent years! It has made diagnosis of vascular diseases much easier.
And of course, this may also bring out some pitfalls and controversies... like in this case. But, finally, after putting our heads together (involving a multidisciplinary team of neurosurgeon, neurologist, rheumatologist, intervential radiologist), a consensus was finally achieved and treatment plan formalized!

Meant to hike up a hill, for an enchanting view of clouds from the peak.

But alas, it rained cats and dogs about 10 minutes of our hike. Had to abort the trip... My shoes were literally soaked on our return trip.
Hopefully, I will have a better luck the next time.

Nothing beats the aerial view of the terrace rice field from a cable car.
The photo was taken as we ascended to Fansipar Peak @ Sapa, in our recent visit to Hanoi.
Fortunately the sky was clear, and we have unobstructed view of the scenery from the cable car and mountain peak.
