Intestinal anatomy, artwork
Intestinal anatomy. Computer artwork showing the layers of the small intestine. The central space (lumen) is surrounded by the mucosa (beige, folded), which has numerous folds (villi). Surrounding this is the submucosa (beige) and then a layer of circular muscle (brown), followed by a layer of longitudinal muscle. The outer layer (beige, left) is the serous membrane (serosa). The arteries, which supply blood to the intestine, and veins that carry nutrients, absorbed during digestion, away from the intestine, can also be seen

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork showcases the intricate layers and structures of the small intestine, providing a glimpse into the fascinating world of human anatomy. The computer-generated illustration highlights the complexity and functionality of this vital organ within our digestive system. At its core, we see the central space known as the lumen, encased by the mucosa layer with its distinctive folds called villi. These folds play a crucial role in increasing surface area for nutrient absorption during digestion. Surrounding the mucosa is the submucosa layer followed by a layer of circular muscle, responsible for propelling food through peristaltic contractions. The outermost layer, known as serous membrane or serosa, provides protection to these underlying layers. The image also reveals an intricate network of arteries and veins that supply blood to and from the intestine respectively. This vascular system ensures efficient delivery of nutrients absorbed during digestion throughout our body. With its detailed portrayal of anatomical structures such as arteries, veins, muscles, and folds, this print serves as both an educational tool for students studying biology or gastroenterology and a visually stunning piece of art that celebrates our complex physiology.
