Photographic Print : Coronary artery, TEM
Photo Prints from Science Photo Library
Coronary artery, TEM
Coronary artery. Coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of a cross-section through the wall of a coronary artery. The inside (lumen) of the artery is at top, and contains red blood cells (red) and a white blood cell (blue). The wall of the artery is made up of an endothelial lining (green/blue), smooth muscle (red/blue) and elastic tissue (yellow). Coronary arteries supply the thick muscular wall of the heart with blood. Magnification: 2800x when printed 10 centimetreswide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases a cross-section of a coronary artery, providing us with an intricate view of its complex structure. At first glance, the vibrant colors and detailed features draw our attention to the various components that make up this vital blood vessel. The top section reveals the lumen of the artery, where red blood cells flow alongside a solitary white blood cell. The contrasting hues emphasize their distinct roles in maintaining our cardiovascular health. Moving towards the wall of the artery, we encounter different layers that contribute to its functionality. The greenish-blue endothelial lining forms a protective barrier between circulating blood and surrounding tissues while facilitating smooth blood flow. Adjacent to it lies the red and blue smooth muscle layer responsible for regulating arterial tone and controlling blood pressure. Lastly, elastic tissue in yellow provides elasticity and resilience to accommodate changes in volume during each heartbeat. Coronary arteries play an essential role by supplying oxygen-rich blood to nourish the muscular walls of our heart. This microscopic marvel is magnified 2800 times when printed at just 10 centimeters wide, allowing us to appreciate its intricate details beyond what can be seen with naked eyes. Science Photo Library continues to amaze us with their ability to capture such remarkable images that bridge artistry and scientific exploration.
