Fine Art Print : Colour SEM of atherosclerosis in coronary artery
Fine Art Prints from Science Photo Library
Colour SEM of atherosclerosis in coronary artery
Atherosclerosis. Coloured Scanning Electron Micro- graph (SEM) of a longitudinal section through a human coronary artery of the heart showing athero- sclerosis. Atherosclerosis is the build-up of fatty plaques on the walls of arteries. Here, the artery wall is brown with inner lumen blue. Fatty plaque known as atheroma (yellow) has built-up on the inner wall, and is blocking about 60% of the artery width. Fibrin filaments (green) associated with clotted blood are seen. Atherosclerosis leads to irregular bloodflow and clot formation, which can block the coronary artery resulting in heart attack. Magnification: x35 at 6x7cm size. x46 at 4x5ins

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intricate details of atherosclerosis in a coronary artery. The coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) showcases a longitudinal section through a human coronary artery, revealing the detrimental effects of this condition. Atherosclerosis refers to the accumulation of fatty plaques on arterial walls, and here we witness its impact firsthand. The artery wall is depicted in shades of brown, while the inner lumen appears as a serene blue. However, it is impossible to ignore the yellowish hue that signifies the presence of fatty plaque known as an atheroma. This build-up has obstructed approximately 60% of the artery's width, severely compromising blood flow. Within this chaotic scene, green fibrin filaments associated with clotted blood are visible. These elements further contribute to irregular blood flow and clot formation, increasing the risk of complete blockage and potentially triggering heart attacks. With magnification at x35 for 6x7cm size or x46 for 4x5ins size, this SEM image offers remarkable insight into arteriosclerotic vascular disease. By shedding light on conditions such as occlusion and stenosis caused by cholesterol-laden plaques like these within coronary arteries, medical professionals gain valuable knowledge to combat this disorder effectively. This photograph from Science Photo Library serves as both an educational tool and a reminder of how crucial maintaining cardiovascular health truly is.
