Wrist bones, X-ray
Wrist bones, coloured X-ray. The wrist joint is seen from the top at left and from the side at right. In the top view, the bones of the forearm are at bottom: the ulna (left) and the radius (right). The wrist joint comprises eight small bones called carpals. These articulate with the five bones of the palm, called metacarpals (top). The thumb is at right

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of wrist bones through a colored X-ray. The image provides two perspectives: one from the top and another from the side, allowing us to appreciate the complexity of the wrist joint. In the top view, we can observe two bones of the forearm - ulna on the left and radius on the right - positioned at the bottom. Above them, eight small bones known as carpals form this crucial joint. These carpals artfully connect with five metacarpals that make up our palm's structure, visible at the top of this stunning radiograph. The thumb is prominently displayed on the right side, emphasizing its importance in hand mobility and dexterity. This photograph not only highlights anatomical structures but also serves as a reminder of how interconnected our skeletal system truly is. With its false-colored presentation, this X-ray print beautifully merges science and artistry. It offers an insight into medical imaging techniques while simultaneously showcasing human anatomy in all its glory. Captured by Science Photo Library, this remarkable piece invites us to marvel at both medicine's advancements and nature's design within our own bodies. Whether for educational purposes or personal appreciation, this image undoubtedly sparks curiosity about our complex skeletal framework and its vital role in supporting everyday movements.
