Oesophagus Swallowed Throat Safety Pin
17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases a remarkable and somewhat unsettling sight: a colored X-ray of a safety pin lodged in the throat, specifically the oesophagus of a woman. The image provides an insightful side view of the neck, where the swallowed object is prominently visible at the center-right position. The sheer intensity and clarity captured by this X-ray highlights both the fragility and resilience of our bodies. It serves as a stark reminder that accidents can happen even in seemingly harmless situations. Swallowing foreign objects unintentionally can lead to potentially dangerous obstructions in our throats, causing discomfort and posing serious health risks. The intricate details revealed by this X-ray print allow us to marvel at medical technology's ability to capture such complex internal structures with precision. It also emphasizes how crucial it is for medical professionals to promptly identify and address cases like these, ensuring proper treatment and care for patients. While viewing this image may elicit mixed emotions - curiosity, concern, or even gratitude for modern medicine - it undeniably offers an extraordinary glimpse into one aspect of human anatomy that we rarely get to witness firsthand.
