Thyroid anatomy, artwork C013 / 4675
Thyroid anatomy. Computer artwork of the thyroid glands (pink) of the neck, shown in relation to the bodys bones and throat structures (white). The head is at top, with the clavicles and upper ribs across bottom. These joined paired glands are found in the neck, enclosing the trachea below the larynx. They are part of the endocrine system, releasing thyroid hormones into the bloodstream to regulate the rate of the bodys metabolism and growth

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate anatomy of the thyroid glands, beautifully depicted through computer artwork. The pink-colored thyroid glands take center stage in this image, situated within the neck and surrounded by various structures such as bones and throat tissues represented in white. Positioned at the top of the image is the head, while at the bottom lie the clavicles and upper ribs. These paired glands play a crucial role in our body's endocrine system, releasing essential thyroid hormones into our bloodstream to regulate metabolism and growth. The thyroid glands enclose the trachea below the larynx, acting as guardians of our metabolic rate. They ensure that our body functions optimally by producing hormones like thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3), which are vital for maintaining normal organ function. This visually striking illustration not only highlights key anatomical features but also emphasizes their significance in hormone production. It serves as a valuable resource for those interested in biology, internal organs, endocrinology, or general human anatomy. Captured by Springer Medizin/Science Photo Library with meticulous attention to detail, this print provides an insightful glimpse into one of nature's remarkable creations – our very own thyroid gland.
