Bone marrow, SEM
Bone marrow, coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM). This freeze-fracture has revealed the cavity (lumen) of a large venous sinus (pink), which contains mature blood cells (red), and developing white blood cells (blue). Either side of the sinus are the haemopoetic foci of the marrow (green). Magnification: x3000 when printed at 10 centimetres across

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of bone marrow, a vital component of our biological system. Through the lens of a scanning electron microscope (SEM), we are granted an up-close and detailed view of this remarkable tissue. The freeze-fracture technique employed in capturing this image has allowed us to witness the inner workings of bone marrow. At the center, we observe a large venous sinus, its pink hue contrasting against the surrounding elements. Within this cavity lies a bustling microcosm - mature blood cells painted in vibrant red and developing white blood cells adorned in shades of blue. Flanking either side of the sinus are haemopoetic foci, depicted as vivid green clusters. These regions serve as active sites for blood cell production, emphasizing their crucial role in maintaining our overall health and well-being. With a magnification level set at x3000 when printed at 10 centimeters across, every minute detail is brought to life on this mesmerizing print. The false-colored presentation adds an artistic touch while still preserving the scientific accuracy that makes it so valuable to researchers and enthusiasts alike. Science Photo Library has yet again captured nature's wonders through their lens, offering us an awe-inspiring glimpse into one aspect of human anatomy that often goes unnoticed but plays an indispensable role within our bodies – bone marrow.
