This woman has been a lawyer but had MS-related aphasia. She has been turning her MRIs into art works.

From PubMed, March 6, 2013:

Neurology. 2013 Mar 5;80(10):968.

Celebration

Jameson E.
artist, lawyer, and person with multiple sclerosis.

"Celebration," an etching of an angiogram, is part of a series on the brain by artist Elizabeth Jameson. Her etchings are portraits that express the mystery of the brain revealed through MRIs and angiograms. Digital brain scans became a part of the artist's life when she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. As her stack of MRIs grew, so did her fascination with the brain as well as the eerie MRIs. They were frightening, yet mesmerizing. The resulting art came from her desire to reinterpret these images, using them to explore the wonder and the complexity of the brain.
