Tonsillitis
Tonsillitis. Artwork of the open mouth and throat of a patient with inflamed tonsils. They are flecked with infected yellow patches, due to tonsillitis, an infection usually caused by streptococci bacteria. Tonsils are oval-shaped masses of spongy lymphoid tissue on either side of the back of the mouth. They help the body respond to infection, producing antibodies for the immune system and trapping and destroying micro-organisms that enter the throat. Tonsillitis causes a sore throat, fever and difficulty with swallowing. Treatment involves a course of antibiotic drugs. If it is recurrent and severe, then the tonsils may need to be surgically removed (tonsillectomy)

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 artwork captures the intricate details of a patient's open mouth and throat affected by tonsillitis. The inflamed tonsils, depicted as oval-shaped masses of spongy lymphoid tissue, are adorned with infected yellow patches caused by streptococci bacteria. Tonsils play a vital role in our immune system, producing antibodies to combat infections and trapping micro-organisms that enter the throat. Tonsillitis manifests itself through symptoms such as a sore throat, fever, and difficulty swallowing. Fortunately, this condition can be effectively treated with a course of antibiotic drugs. However, in cases where it becomes recurrent and severe, surgical removal of the tonsils may be necessary. The artist skillfully portrays the pathology behind this common infection while highlighting its impact on the human body. This thought-provoking illustration serves as an educational tool for medical professionals and students alike. Science Photo Library continues to excel in providing remarkable visual resources that bridge artistry with scientific knowledge. Their dedication to capturing these microscopic worlds within our bodies allows us to better understand diseases like tonsillitis and their treatment options.
