Illustration of section through human heart
Illustration of a longitudinal section through the human heart in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, showing massive enlargement of the muscular septum separating the left and right ventricles (bottom left on image). The term cardiomyopathy describes a heart muscle disease of unknown cause: hypertrophy refers to the increase in size of the heart muscle brought about by the enlargement of its cells rather than by cell multiplication (as occurs, for example, in normal growth and tumour formation)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases an intricate illustration of a longitudinal section through the human heart, specifically focusing on hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. The image vividly depicts the remarkable enlargement of the muscular septum that separates the left and right ventricles, prominently displayed in the bottom left corner. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a perplexing heart muscle disease with an unknown cause. In this condition, rather than cell multiplication as seen in normal growth or tumor formation, there is a significant increase in size of the heart muscle cells themselves - referred to as hypertrophy. This abnormality leads to substantial enlargement of the entire heart. The complexity and detail captured in this illustration offer valuable insights into cardiac health care and provide medical professionals with essential visual references for diagnosing and understanding this disorder. By shedding light on such conditions, Science Photo Library plays a crucial role in advancing our knowledge about diseases like hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. It is important to note that this print should not be used for commercial purposes but serves as an educational tool instead. With its focus on ventricular hypertrophy, cardiac function, and various aspects related to cardiomyopathy, it offers viewers a glimpse into one aspect of human health that continues to challenge researchers worldwide.
