Atheromatous artery, artwork C015 / 6446
Atheromatous artery. Cutaway computer artwork showing the interior of an artery affected by atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis is narrowing of an artery (stenosis) due to fatty deposits (beige) on its inner walls. The deposits are made of atheroma, a substance comprising cholesterol, decaying cells, blood cells and fatty proteins. Narrowing of blood vessels raises blood pressure, which puts strain on the heart. Atherosclerosis is the main cause of heart attacks. Here, the clot has completed blocked the vessel and red blood cells (red) can be seen building up behind it

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Atheromatous Artery" offers a striking visual representation of the detrimental effects of atherosclerosis on our circulatory system. Created by artist Henning Dalhoff, this cutaway computer artwork unveils the interior of an artery that has fallen victim to this condition. Atherosclerosis refers to the narrowing (stenosis) of an artery due to fatty deposits (atheroma) accumulating on its inner walls. The beige-colored deposits in this image consist of cholesterol, decaying cells, blood cells, and fatty proteins. As these plaques build up over time, they progressively constrict the blood vessel's lumen. The consequences are dire: narrowed blood vessels lead to increased blood pressure and strain on the heart. In fact, atherosclerosis is recognized as the primary cause behind heart attacks. This particular depiction showcases how a clot has completely obstructed the vessel, causing red blood cells (depicted in red) to accumulate behind it. With its white background and meticulous attention to detail, this artwork serves as both an educational tool for medical professionals and a thought-provoking piece for anyone interested in understanding vascular diseases better. By shedding light on such disorders within the human body through artistic expression and scientific accuracy, Dalhoff's work invites us all to contemplate our own health while appreciating the intricate complexities of our circulatory system.
