Cushion : Lungs and heart, X-ray
Home Decor from Science Photo Library
Lungs and heart, X-ray
Lungs and heart, coloured chest X-ray. The lungs and heart are enclosed and protected by the ribs (horizontal bars) which meet at the breastbone, or sternum (down centre). The heart (red) is partly seen protruding from behind the sternum at lower right. The lung airways (green) branch out into the rest of the chest cavity. The lungs bring air close to blood capillaries, allowing oxygen to be taken up by the body, and carbon dioxide to be released. The heart pumps blood around the body

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate beauty of our respiratory and cardiovascular systems. In vivid colors, it reveals a chest X-ray highlighting the lungs and heart, which are safeguarded by the ribs that converge at the sternum. The heart, depicted in vibrant red hues, can be partially seen peeking out from behind the sternum on the lower right side. Meanwhile, branching out into the expansive chest cavity are the lung airways portrayed in refreshing shades of green. These lungs play a crucial role in bringing oxygen close to blood capillaries while facilitating carbon dioxide release. As we marvel at this image, we gain an appreciation for how our body functions harmoniously. The heart diligently pumps life-giving blood throughout our entire being while these remarkable lungs ensure efficient respiration. Together with other vital components like bones and clavicles highlighted within this radiograph, they form an extraordinary symphony within our thoracic region. This mesmerizing visual representation serves as a reminder of both our fragility and resilience as human beings. It underscores how essential it is to maintain a healthy respiratory system and robust cardiovascular health. Through its sheer brilliance, this photograph invites us to delve deeper into understanding these intricate mechanisms that sustain us every day - an invitation extended by Science Photo Library's dedication to capturing scientific wonders through their lens.
