Metal Print : X-ray of appendix
Metal Prints from Science Photo Library
X-ray of appendix
Healthy appendix. Coloured X-ray of the human appendix and colon (large intestine). The appendix (centre left) is a narrow finger-shaped tube of the intestine, about 9 centimetres long in adults. Here it is straight but it is often curled. In structure it has a thick wall, narrow cavity, and a lining similar to the large intestine to which it is attached. At upper centre and lower right is the colon. The appendix is located near the point where the small intestine leads into the colon. The appendix has no known function, while the colon absorbs water and minerals from food that has already been digested

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a vibrant and detailed X-ray image of a healthy human appendix and colon, providing an intriguing glimpse into the inner workings of our digestive system. The appendix, situated at the centre left of the image, is depicted as a slender tube-like structure approximately 9 centimetres long in adults. Although it appears straight in this particular X-ray, it is commonly found curled within the body. With its thick wall, narrow cavity, and lining resembling that of the large intestine to which it connects, the appendix remains somewhat enigmatic as its true purpose remains unknown. The colon takes up space both at the upper centre and lower right sections of this remarkable X-ray. This vital organ plays a crucial role in absorbing water and minerals from already digested food. Positioned near where the small intestine transitions into the colon, the appendix stands adjacent to this significant junction. Through this visually striking photograph by Science Photo Library, we gain insight into various aspects of biology including anatomy, gut health, and normal bodily functions. It serves as a reminder that even seemingly insignificant structures like our appendix can hold mysteries yet to be unraveled by scientific exploration.
