Photo Mug : Coloured X-ray of the healthy hand of a man
Home Decor from Science Photo Library
Coloured X-ray of the healthy hand of a man
Mans hand. Coloured X-ray of the healthy hand of a man, showing the arrangement of its bones. An outline of the flesh of the hand is seen. Bones of the hand consist of eight small carpals in the wrist (lower centre), which articulate with the two long forearm bones (at bottom). Five metacarpal bones (at centre) make up the palm of the hand. Each finger has three phalanges, except the thumb which has two such bones. This skeleton enables the human hand to be used with great flexibility, helped especially by the joint between the wrist and the opposable thumb. This well-adapted hand allowed our ancestors to use tools, facilitating human evolution

This print showcases the intricate beauty of a healthy man's hand through a colored X-ray. The image reveals the remarkable arrangement of bones, with an outline of flesh delicately visible. At the wrist's lower center, eight small carpals articulate with two long forearm bones, forming the foundation for this extraordinary skeletal structure. In the palm of the hand, five metacarpal bones take their place at the center stage. Each finger gracefully extends from these metacarpals and consists of three phalanges, except for the thumb which possesses two such bones. This unique skeleton grants unparalleled flexibility to our human hands, allowing us to perform various tasks with ease. The joint between the wrist and opposable thumb plays a crucial role in enhancing our dexterity. It is this well-adapted hand that has been instrumental throughout human evolution by enabling our ancestors to utilize tools effectively. From crafting primitive implements to shaping civilizations, this incredible appendage has played an indispensable part in shaping humanity's destiny. Science Photo Library presents this awe-inspiring photograph as a testament to both artistry and scientific exploration. Through its meticulous composition and vivid colors, it invites us into a world where anatomy meets aesthetics—a visual representation that celebrates not only our physicality but also pays homage to countless generations who have harnessed their hands' potential for progress and innovation.
