This print titled "Broken elbow, X-ray C017 / 7968" showcases an unfortunate injury suffered by a brave 5-year-old girl. The image reveals an X-ray of her elbow, specifically highlighting a displaced supracondylar fracture. Located at the base of the humerus, or upper arm bone, this fracture is clearly visible within the upper frame. The photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the fragility and resilience of the human body. It captures a moment in time when medicine and technology intersect to provide crucial diagnostic information for effective treatment. The monochrome composition adds to its striking nature, emphasizing both the abnormality and severity of this particular injury.
