Narrowed artery, computer artwork
Narrowed artery. Computer artwork of a narrowed artery, showing red blood cells (red) and high levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL, yellow balls). LDL cholesterol can build up on the sides of blood vessels along with cell debris, calcium and fibrous connective tissue to form an atheroma (yellow deposit). This narrows the blood vessels (stenosis), which raises blood pressure and puts strain on the heart. A group of drugs called statins can be taken to lower LDL-cholesterol

EDITORS COMMENTS
This computer artwork print showcases a narrowed artery, shedding light on the intricate complexities of our circulatory system. The image vividly portrays red blood cells coursing through the vessel, while high levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) are represented by yellow balls. LDL cholesterol, notorious for its detrimental effects on cardiovascular health, can accumulate alongside cell debris, calcium deposits, and fibrous connective tissue to form an atheroma - depicted here as a conspicuous yellow deposit. The consequences of such arterial narrowing are far-reaching; it restricts blood flow and raises blood pressure, placing undue strain on the heart. However, medical advancements have provided us with statins - a group of drugs that effectively lower LDL-cholesterol levels. This remarkable illustration serves as a reminder that proactive measures can be taken to combat this condition. As we delve into this visually striking representation of an unhealthy artery's interior landscape, we gain insight into the intricacies of diseases like atherosclerosis and hypertension. It is fascinating to witness how lipid abnormalities within our bodies can lead to hardened arteries and potentially life-threatening conditions. Science Photo Library has once again captured the essence of medical science through their exceptional artistry in this print. By exploring these visual representations at hand, we deepen our understanding of human physiology while appreciating both the beauty and fragility inherent in our vascular system.
