Glass Frame : Light micrograph of normal heart (cardiac) muscle
Mounted Prints from Science Photo Library
Light micrograph of normal heart (cardiac) muscle
Heart muscle. Light micrograph of healthy heart (cardiac) muscle, seen in longitudinal section. Bundles of muscle fibres are stained red, running diagonally from upper right to lower left. Fibres are joined end to end by intercalated discs (not visible), forming a continuous network which allows for efficient tranmission and regulation of muscle contraction. Fibre bundles are joined across spaces (white) by connective tissue. This connective tissue also occurs between muscle cells and is extremely rich in blood capillaries. The high concentration of blood vessels in heart muscle reflects its demand for oxygen and high performance. Magnification: x125 at 6x7cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a light micrograph of normal heart (cardiac) muscle, providing an intricate glimpse into the inner workings of our vital organ. The image captures a longitudinal section of healthy heart muscle, revealing bundles of vibrant red-stained muscle fibers that run diagonally from the upper right to the lower left. What makes this microscopic view even more fascinating is the presence of intercalated discs, although not visible in this particular image. These discs serve as connectors between individual muscle fibers, forming a continuous network crucial for efficient transmission and regulation of muscle contraction. The connective tissue depicted here acts as both a bridge across spaces and a rich source of blood capillaries. This abundance of blood vessels within the heart muscle signifies its constant need for oxygen and exceptional performance capabilities. With a magnification level set at x125 on a 6x7cm size scale, this remarkable photograph offers us an extraordinary insight into the complex anatomy and functionality behind cardiac muscles. It serves as a testament to Science Photo Library's commitment to capturing awe-inspiring images that deepen our understanding of the human body without any commercial intentions involved.
