Abdominal Ct Scan Liver Scan Stomach Viscera False Coloured

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a false-colour computed X-ray tomography (CT) scan of an axial section through the upper abdomen, providing us with a fascinating glimpse into the intricate anatomy of the human body. The left side of the image reveals a healthy liver, predominantly colored in shades of yellow, while on the right we can observe the stomach portrayed in an intriguing blue hue, with a black portion at its top. As we explore this visual masterpiece further, our attention is drawn to other structures that are prominently featured. The ribs appear as blue ovals encircling the periphery of the image, serving as protective barriers for these vital organs. At the bottom lies one of the thoracic vertebrae depicted in blue hues. However, it is impossible to overlook one crucial element showcased at direct center stage –the abdominal aorta. This principal artery responsible for supplying oxygenated blood throughout our bodies stands out vividly in vibrant red and yellow tones. Through this mesmerizing composition by Science Photo Library, we gain insight into not only how our internal organs function but also their aesthetic beauty when viewed from within. It serves as a reminder that beneath our skin lies an intricately designed system working tirelessly to sustain us every day.
