Heart structure

Artwork of the internal structure of the heart. On the left, the right atrium (top cavity) and right ventriculum (bottom) receive deoxygenated blood from the body through the superior and inferior vena cava, coloured blue. From the right ventriculum the blood flows through the pulmonary arteries (not visible) to the lungs. Oxygenated blood returns to the left atrium and ventriculum and is distributed to the body through the red ascending aorta. The yellow feature at the base of the superior vena cava, embedded in blue nerve endings, is the sinuatrial node where the impulse for the heart contraction originates

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate internal structure of the heart, beautifully depicted as a work of art. On the left side, we observe the right atrium at the top and right ventricle at the bottom, both responsible for receiving deoxygenated blood from our body through the superior and inferior vena cava, represented by shades of blue. The unseen pulmonary arteries transport this blood to our lungs for oxygenation. The image also highlights how oxygenated blood returns to the heart's left atrium and ventricle before being distributed throughout our body via the vibrant red ascending aorta. At its base lies a fascinating yellow feature known as the sinuatrial node - an essential part where impulses for heart contractions originate. This tiny node is surrounded by delicate blue nerve endings, adding another layer of complexity to this remarkable organ. With its emphasis on healthy anatomy and normal circulation within our bodies, this illustration provides us with valuable insights into human cardiology and circulatory systems. It reminds us of just how vital these structures are in maintaining overall well-being. Captured by Science Photo Library, renowned for their exceptional visual representations in various scientific fields, this print serves as a testament to their expertise in capturing not only scientific accuracy but also artistic beauty within medical imagery.
