Neck arteries to the brain, 3D MRI scan
Coloured three-dimensional (3D) Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan of the neck in a 45 year old patient showing the arteries that supply blood to the brain, including the aortic arch (at bottom), subclavian arteries (at lower left and right), and carotid arteries (internal and external, at centre)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate network of neck arteries that supply blood to the brain. The vibrant colors in this three-dimensional MRI scan bring to life the complex circulatory system within a 45-year-old patient. At the bottom, we can observe the majestic aortic arch, which serves as a vital conduit for oxygenated blood flow. Positioned at lower left and right are the subclavian arteries, diligently carrying essential nutrients throughout the body. However, it is at the center where our attention is truly captured - here lie both internal and external carotid arteries. These crucial pathways play an integral role in maintaining healthy circulation within our bodies. Their presence signifies not only normal anatomical function but also highlights their significance in sustaining overall well-being. Through magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), this remarkable snapshot offers us a glimpse into one of nature's most awe-inspiring creations -the human body. As we marvel at this intricately detailed image, let us appreciate how these arteries work tirelessly day after day to ensure proper blood flow reaches our brain. Science Photo Library has once again provided us with an invaluable visual representation of medical science's progress and understanding of our own physiology. This print serves as a reminder of both our fragility and resilience as humans while igniting curiosity about what lies beneath our skin's surface.
