Prosthetic heart valves, X-ray F008 / 3453
Prosthetic heart valves. Coloured X-ray of the chest of a patient that has had their mitral and aortic heart valves replaced with prosthetic valves (centre right). Heart valves control the flow of blood between chambers of the heart. Valve failure can lead to malfunctioning of the heart and death

31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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 the intricate world of medical advancements and the wonders of modern healthcare. The image captures a colored X-ray of a patient's chest, specifically focusing on their prosthetic heart valves. Positioned at the center-right, these artificial valves have replaced both the mitral and aortic heart valves. Heart valves play a crucial role in regulating blood flow between different chambers of the heart. When these vital components fail to function properly, it can lead to severe malfunctions within this essential organ system, potentially resulting in life-threatening consequences. The white background accentuates the visual clarity of this scientific imaging masterpiece. It serves as an unobtrusive canvas that allows viewers to fully appreciate the complexity and precision involved in creating such prosthetic devices. This photograph not only highlights medical treatment options for individuals suffering from valve-related diseases but also emphasizes how innovation and technology are transforming lives by providing solutions for various health conditions. By showcasing internal organs like the heart through radiography, it offers us a glimpse into our own bodies' inner workings while reminding us of our vulnerability as humans. Ultimately, this powerful illustration reminds us of the importance of maintaining good cardiovascular health and cherishing every beat that keeps us alive.
