Shoulder muscles, artwork C013 / 4515
Shoulder muscles. Computer artwork of a posterior view of two of the muscles (red) of the shoulders and their attachment to the bones of the back and upper arms. These are the teres minor and teres major muscles. The teres minor muscle is shown on both sides here. The teres major muscle is shown in semi-transparent mode at right. Both muscles run from the scapula (shoulder blade) to the humerus (upper arm bone), and surround the armpit (axillary) space. The teres minor muscle is part of the shoulders rotator cuff, while the teres major muscle isn t. Also shown here are the bones of the ribcage and spine

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate network of shoulder muscles, providing a detailed view of their attachment to the bones of the back and upper arms. In this computer artwork, we are presented with a posterior perspective that highlights two specific muscles: the teres minor and teres major. The vibrant red color emphasizes these muscles as they run from the scapula (shoulder blade) to the humerus (upper arm bone), enveloping the armpit space. While both muscles are depicted here, it is important to note that only the teres minor muscle is part of the shoulders' rotator cuff. To enhance our understanding further, this illustration also includes an array of anatomical structures such as bones from the ribcage and spine. The presence of these elements adds depth to our comprehension of how these shoulder muscles interact within our musculoskeletal system. Through this visually striking image, we gain insight into not only human anatomy but also appreciate its complexity and functionality. It serves as a reminder that beneath our skin lies an intricate webwork responsible for enabling us to perform everyday tasks effortlessly. This remarkable artwork by Springer Medizin/Science Photo Library offers a glimpse into one aspect of human biology while igniting curiosity about other wonders hidden within our bodies.
