Kneecaps, X-ray
Kneecaps. Coloured X-ray of the kneecaps of a healthy adult man, as viewed from above when the knees are bent. The kneecap (or patella) is a disc of bone that covers and protects the front of the knee joint. The knee joint, the largest joint in the body, is formed where the thigh bone (femur, seen here below the kneecaps) articulates with the tibia bone (not seen)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty and functionality of the human knee. In vivid color, it reveals a pair of healthy adult male kneecaps from an aerial perspective when the knees are bent. The kneecap, also known as the patella, takes center stage as a disc-shaped bone that acts as a shield for the front of the knee joint. The image provides an anatomical glimpse into one of our body's largest joints - where the thigh bone (femur) articulates with the unseen tibia bone. This crucial connection forms our knee joint, enabling us to walk, run, jump, and perform countless movements effortlessly. Radiating health and strength, this panoramic view emphasizes not only the importance but also the complexity of our skeletal system. It serves as a reminder that beneath our skin lies an intricate network of bones working harmoniously to support us in every step we take. Captured by Science Photo Library's expert lensmen/women, this print is more than just a visual delight; it is an educational tool that invites viewers to explore and appreciate their own bodies' remarkable architecture. Whether you're fascinated by anatomy or simply intrigued by nature's design prowess, this photograph offers a unique perspective on one aspect of human physiology – reminding us all how truly amazing our bodies are.
