Blocked coronary artery, artwork

Blocked coronary artery. Computer artwork of a clot (red) in a coronary artery. The clot has been caused by atherosclerosis, the build up of fatty plaques (yellow) on the artery wall. Part of the plaque has come lose and blocked the already narrowed artery. Interruption of the blood flow to the heart often leads to a myocardial infarction (heart attack) and can be fatal

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork, titled "Blocked Coronary Artery" offers a striking visual representation of a life-threatening condition that affects millions worldwide. Created by Science Photo Library, this computer-generated image depicts the intricate network of blood vessels within our bodies and highlights the devastating consequences of atherosclerosis. The vibrant red clot showcased in this artwork symbolizes the obstruction caused by fatty plaques (depicted in yellow) accumulating on the inner walls of a coronary artery. As these deposits build up over time, they narrow the already constricted passage, impeding blood flow to the heart muscle. This dangerous scenario often culminates in a myocardial infarction or heart attack – an event that can have fatal consequences if left untreated. Through its meticulous attention to detail, this illustration underscores the urgency for effective medical intervention and preventive measures against cardiovascular diseases. By shedding light on conditions like blocked arteries and their underlying causes such as cholesterol buildup and arteriosclerosis, it serves as both an educational tool for healthcare professionals and an eye-opening reminder for individuals about their own cardiac health. "Blocked Coronary Artery" encapsulates not only scientific accuracy but also artistic brilliance. It invites viewers to contemplate the delicate balance between life-sustaining blood circulation and potential threats lurking within our bodies. With its fusion of medicine and artistry, this print from Science Photo Library is sure to captivate audiences while raising awareness about one of humanity's most prevalent health concerns – heart disease.
