Arthrosis of the hand, X-ray F006 / 4616

Coloured X-ray of the hand of a patient with arthrosis, particularly the saddle joint. Arthrosis is a degenerative joint disease that damages cartilage and bone. As the cartilage is worn away, new bone grows as part of the repair process. This causes stiffness and deformity of the fingers. Treatment is with anti-inflammatory drugs and in severe cases surgery

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Arthrosis of the hand, X-ray F006 / 4616" offers a vivid glimpse into the intricate world of joint diseases. The coloured X-ray showcases the hand of a patient suffering from arthrosis, with particular emphasis on the saddle joint. Arthrosis is a degenerative condition that wreaks havoc on both cartilage and bone within joints. As we observe this image closely, it becomes apparent how wear and tear have eroded the cartilage in this individual's hand. In response to this damage, new bone growth occurs as part of the body's natural repair process. Unfortunately, this regrowth leads to stiffness and deformity in their fingers. The significance of this visual representation lies not only in its aesthetic appeal but also in its educational value. It serves as a reminder that arthrosis can cause immense discomfort and limitations for those affected by it. Thankfully, medical advancements offer hope for managing arthrosis-related symptoms effectively. Treatment options range from anti-inflammatory drugs to surgical interventions for severe cases. In essence, this photograph encapsulates both the complexity and fragility of our bodies' joints while highlighting the importance of healthcare professionals who tirelessly work towards alleviating pain caused by conditions like arthrosis.
