On the left is a CT scan of Terri Schiavo’s brain
On the right, for comparison’s sake, is a CT scan of a healthy human brain.
CT scans are useful for trauma cases. Terri didn’t have a brain trauma. She had an
oxygen deprivation. The neurologists cited by Johannsen specifically mentioned that in
oxygen deprivation cases, you need an MRI and/or PET to get a good understanding of what
the level of damage to the brain is; a CT scan doesn’t get it done. If her brain
injury is severe, that’s exactly what the MRI would definitively establish.
Given even the tiny chance that her cerebral cortex is somewhat present, wouldn’t it
make sense to do the one test that would establish that definitively? Since the whole case
that she should be killed rests on the belief that she’s already dead from a lack of
a cortex, why did they refuse to go the extra mile and check? |
The diagnosis has been a court matter, both in 2000
and in 2002. In the latter year, a Florida judge agreed with four neurologists that
Schiavo was in a persistent vegetative state. Brain scans and examinations were conducted
in 2002, but no new neurological evaluation has been ordered since, and the medical record
has been closed.
