Fine Art Prints from Science Photo Library
False-colour SEM of vessels in liver lobule
Liver tissue. False-colour scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of blood vessels around a lobule, the functional unit of the liver. A typical lobule is bound on its periphery by groups of ducts & vessels, most prominently the conducting portal vein (large blue sectioned vessel) & branches called distributing portal veins (smaller blue vessel). Plates of hepatocytes or liver cells (coloured gold) radiate towards a central vein (top right). The dark spaces surrounding them are capillaries (sinusoids). Arterial vessels also bind each lobule, but are less visible here. Magnification: x125 at 6x7cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a false-colour scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the intricate network of blood vessels within a liver lobule. Serving as the fundamental unit of the liver, this lobule is surrounded by an array of ducts and vessels, prominently highlighted in shades of blue. The conducting portal vein, depicted as a large blue sectioned vessel, along with its distributing portal veins (smaller blue vessels), form the primary boundary around the lobule. Radiating towards the top right corner are plates of hepatocytes or liver cells, beautifully colored in gold. These hepatocytes extend towards a central vein while being enveloped by dark spaces known as sinusoids – capillaries that enclose them. Although not clearly visible in this image, arterial vessels also bind each lobule. With a magnification level set at x125 for this 6x7cm-sized print, viewers can truly appreciate the complexity and intricacy present within our own bodies. This stunning visual representation provides valuable insight into the anatomy and functioning of these vital organs. Captured by Science Photo Library's expert photographers, this remarkable SEM image offers both scientific value and aesthetic appeal. It serves as a testament to their commitment to capturing breathtaking visuals that bridge art and science seamlessly.
