Normal human brain, MRI scan C016 / 8844
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 pink arch beneath it is the corpus callosum, which facilitates communication between the hemispheres. At bottom right of the brain is the brainstem (pink), 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 (purple), which controls muscle coordination and balance

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a normal human brain, providing an intricate glimpse into the complex organ that governs our thoughts, emotions, and movements. The vibrant colors bring to life the various regions and structures within the brain. At the center of attention is the cerebrum, depicted in a mesmerizing dark blue shade. This highly folded area is responsible for conscious thought, emotion regulation, and voluntary movement. Just beneath it lies the corpus callosum, portrayed in a delicate pink arch. Acting as a bridge between hemispheres, this structure facilitates seamless communication. Moving towards the bottom right corner of the image reveals another vital component - the brainstem. Its soft pink hue signifies its role in controlling automatic functions like sleep patterns and arousal levels while relaying messages from the brain to our spinal cord. Adjacent to it resides the cerebellum painted in regal purple tones. This region plays a crucial part in maintaining muscle coordination and balance. The black background accentuates every detail of this remarkable MRI scan captured by DU CANE MEDICAL IMAGING LTD/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY. It serves as both an educational tool for understanding human anatomy and a testament to our incredible neurological makeup. This awe-inspiring photograph transcends mere scientific documentation; it invites us to marvel at nature's masterpiece -the human brain- with all its intricacies laid bare before us.
