Artwork of deep vein thrombosis and bones in leg
Deep vein thrombosis. Artwork of the major blood vessels and bones of the male lower torso and thigh showing femoral vein thrombosis. Thrombosis is the formation of a thrombus (blood clot) within an intact blood vessel. The vena cava (main vein, blue) and the aorta (main artery, red) branch to the kidneys (top) and down into the legs. The bones shown are the spine (upper right, behind blood vessels), the pelvis (butterfly-shaped) and the femur (thigh bone, lower frame). Thrombi are shown as the clots (red) in the cut away deep femoral vein (blue) in lower frame. Deep vein thrombosis is caused by slow blood flow or an increase in natural blood clotting factors

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork showcases the intricate network of blood vessels and bones in a male lower torso and thigh, with a specific focus on deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Deep vein thrombosis refers to the formation of a blood clot within an intact blood vessel, often caused by slow blood flow or an increase in natural clotting factors. The print highlights the major arteries and veins, such as the vena cava and aorta, branching out towards vital organs like the kidneys before descending into the legs. The artist skillfully depicts this medical condition by illustrating red clots representing thrombi within the cut-away section of the deep femoral vein. Surrounding these clots are various anatomical structures including the spine, pelvis, and femur bone. This visually striking representation not only educates viewers about DVT but also emphasizes its impact on vascular health. Science Photo Library's exceptional artistry merges science with creativity to produce thought-provoking visuals that bridge medicine and art seamlessly. By capturing this complex disease process through their lens, they contribute to our understanding of deep vein thrombosis while simultaneously creating stunning pieces that captivate both medical professionals and art enthusiasts alike.
