Photographic Print : Interior of a bone, SEM
Photo Prints From Science Photo Library
Interior of a bone, SEM
Interior of a bone. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a long bone fractured to show its interior. The outer layer (pink) of the bone comprises proliferating cartilage. In the centre is spongy, or cancellous bone, which contains bone marrow (red) the site of blood cell production. Spongy bone is characterised by a honeycomb arrangement, comprising a network of trabeculae (cream, centre). The perimeter of the bone is made from thicker bone, called compact, or cortical bone

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate interior of a bone, revealing its remarkable structure and function. Through the lens of a scanning electron microscope (SEM), we are granted an up-close view of this biological marvel. The outer layer of the bone, depicted in a soft pink hue, consists of proliferating cartilage. Moving towards the center, we encounter spongy or cancellous bone, which houses the vital bone marrow responsible for blood cell production. The rich red color signifies its significance as a site teeming with life-giving cells. Spongy bone is characterized by its honeycomb arrangement composed of delicate trabeculae that form an interconnected network at the core. These cream-colored structures create an aesthetically pleasing pattern reminiscent of nature's own design. As our exploration continues towards the perimeter, we observe thicker sections made from compact or cortical bone. This sturdy framework provides strength and support to ensure optimal functionality within our bodies. This image serves as a testament to both the complexity and resilience found within our internal anatomy. It offers us a glimpse into one aspect of human biology that often remains hidden beneath layers upon layers but plays an integral role in maintaining our overall health and well-being.
