Thats Pus in the brain! This image shows what a brain looks like when its affected by bacteria, more specific the meningis covering the brain! Its called bacterial meningitis It requires agressive antibitoic therapy & its diagnosed clinical signs & symptoms or by CSF fluid! Sometimes the cause can be viral which means antibiotics wont work, so its important to determine the cause fast to save the patient's life! PS: Empiric antibiotics (treatment without exact diagnosis) should be started immediately, even before the results of the lumbar puncture and CSF analysis are known.
