Normal human brain, MRI scan C016 / 8845
Brain. Coloured magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of a sagittal section through a patients head showing a healthy human brain. The highly folded area (dark blue) is the cerebrum, which is responsible for conscious thought, emotion and voluntary movement. The blue arch beneath it is the corpus callosum, which facilitates communication between the hemispheres. At bottom right of the brain is the brainstem, which controls automatic functions, sleep and arousal and relays messages from the brain to the spinal cord (bottom centre). To its left is the cerebellum (branched), which controls muscle coordination and balance

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a normal human brain in all its intricate glory. With a black background, the image highlights the vibrant colors of the MRI scan, providing a fascinating glimpse into our most complex organ. The focal point is the highly folded cerebrum, depicted in dark blue. This remarkable structure is responsible for conscious thought, emotions, and voluntary movement. Just below it lies the elegant blue arch of the corpus callosum, facilitating seamless communication between the brain's hemispheres. Moving towards the bottom right corner of the image, we encounter the brainstem - a vital region controlling automatic functions like sleep and arousal while relaying messages to our spinal cord at its center. To its left stands another significant component: the cerebellum with its branched appearance. This area plays an essential role in muscle coordination and balance. With this comprehensive view of our neural landscape, we gain insight into how various regions work together harmoniously to support our everyday functioning. Captured by DU CANE MEDICAL IMAGING LTD/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY, this stunning photograph offers both scientific value and aesthetic appeal. It serves as a reminder of just how extraordinary our brains are – beautifully designed hubs that orchestrate every aspect of our being.
