Chest Ct Scan Lung Lungs Respiratory System Scan False Coloured
23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 false-colour CT scan of a normal heart and lungs, providing us with an intricate glimpse into the inner workings of our respiratory system. The image depicts an axial section through the chest, revealing the lung fields colored in mesmerizing shades of purple with delicate black flecks scattered throughout. Nestled between these vibrant lungs is the heart, portrayed as a roughly circular entity adorned in varying hues of blue. Beneath this vital organ lies one of the large thoracic vertebrae, its body and bony processes beautifully highlighted in a striking yellow tone. Positioned to the right of this backbone is none other than the awe-inspiring aorta – our body's principal artery – which manifests itself as a distinct blue circle within this extraordinary composition. Through this false-colour computed X-ray tomography (CT) scan, we are granted access to both anatomical precision and artistic expression. This visual masterpiece not only offers valuable insights into human anatomy but also serves as a testament to science's ability to merge technical expertise with aesthetic brilliance. Science Photo Library has once again delivered an exceptional piece that effortlessly captivates viewers while simultaneously educating them about our remarkable physiological structures.
