Head and neck anatomy, artwork
Head and neck anatomy. Computer artwork of a human head and neck with the overlying tissues removed to show the brain (pink) within a sectioned skull that includes the teeth (white) of the jaws, and nerves (yellow), including the olfactory and optic nerves and the cervical (neck) section of the spinal cord (enclosed in vertebrae). The main brain structures are the folded surface of the cerebrum, and at the base of the brain the rounded structure of the cerebellum next to the brainstem. Within the sectioned skull are the nasal cavity and the paranasal sinus of the forehead (frontal sinus). Some jaw and ear bones are in semi-transparent outline

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning computer artwork of the head and neck anatomy. With the overlying tissues removed, it offers a remarkable view of the intricate structures within. At its core lies the pink-colored brain, nestled within a sectioned skull that also reveals the white teeth of the jaws and an array of yellow nerves. The main focus is on the folded surface of the cerebrum, which forms an impressive landscape at the top. Moving towards the base, we encounter the rounded structure of the cerebellum adjacent to the brainstem. The nasal cavity and paranasal sinus are also visible within this sectioned skull. What makes this artwork even more fascinating is how some jaw and ear bones are depicted in semi-transparent outline, adding depth to our understanding of these anatomical features. Overall, this image provides a comprehensive visual representation of various components essential to human biology. From bone structures like cranium and vertebrae to vital nerves such as olfactory and optic nerves, every detail has been meticulously captured. It serves as a valuable resource for those interested in studying or exploring neurology, neural pathways, or simply gaining insight into our incredible nervous system. This print from Science Photo Library truly embodies both scientific accuracy and artistic beauty in one frame.
