Coloured X-ray of a healthy human spine
Spine. Coloured X-ray showing a healthy human spine seen from the side. The front of the spine is at right. The spine is made of a column of 33 cylindrical bones called vertebrae which support the trunk and head and protect the spinal cord. Between the vertebrae are flexible joints that both stabilise the spine and allow movement. Each vertebra has bony projections (on the left of the vertebrae) which provide attachment sites for the muscles and ligaments that hold the spine together. Running through the spine is the spinal cord (not seen), a bundle of nerves from the brain

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 showcases a coloured X-ray of a healthy human spine, providing an insightful glimpse into the intricate structure that supports our bodies. Seen from the side, the spine appears as a remarkable column composed of 33 cylindrical bones known as vertebrae. Not only do these vertebrae provide stability to our trunk and head, but they also serve as protective shields for the delicate spinal cord. Between each vertebra lies flexible joints that play a dual role in both stabilizing the spine and enabling fluid movement. On the left side of each vertebra, bony projections can be observed which serve as attachment sites for muscles and ligaments responsible for holding this complex system together. While we cannot see it within this image, running through this magnificent spinal column is the spinal cord – an essential bundle of nerves originating from our brain. It serves as a vital communication pathway between our brain and various parts of our body. This extraordinary photograph not only highlights the beauty found within human anatomy but also emphasizes its functionality. As we marvel at this visual representation captured by Science Photo Library, let us appreciate how every aspect of our body works harmoniously to support us in leading healthy lives.
