Patient identification is displayed on the images. That violates patient privacy rights.

This is a good point about patient information. In many countries sharing patient identification information without the patient's permission is a HIPAA violation.

Members should make sure patient information is removed from images before uploading them.

Dear Daniel;

I agree with patients name being on the image. It is in violation of our US laws. But there are no such laws in other countries. Since cases come from all over the world. We can not control such things.

Thanks for your case, I think it is a mycotic aneurysm.
