Stomach anatomy, artwork C016 / 2858
Stomach anatomy. Artwork showing the position of the stomach (red) in relation to other abdominal organs and the human skeleton, in an oblique right-frontal view from below. The stomach receives food from the oesophagus (gullet), churning it up and beginning to break it down for digestion, passing it onwards to the intestines. The stomach is partially covered by the liver. The intestines are below the stomach

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate anatomy of the stomach, providing a fascinating insight into its position within the human body. In this oblique right-frontal view from below, we can observe the stomach (highlighted in red) nestled amidst other abdominal organs and the skeletal structure. The stomach plays a crucial role in our digestive system, receiving food from the oesophagus and commencing its breakdown for digestion. It accomplishes this through churning motions before passing it further down to the intestines for absorption of nutrients. Notably, this artwork also reveals that part of the stomach is concealed by the liver, emphasizing how interconnected our internal organs are. The intestines lie beneath the stomach, completing an essential pathway for food processing and nutrient extraction. With meticulous detail and precision, this illustration offers valuable insights into normal healthy anatomy while shedding light on various aspects of biology. Its visual representation serves as a powerful tool for understanding both skeletal structures and biological processes related to digestion. Unveiling hidden complexities within our bodies' anterior region, this image holds significance not only in anatomical studies but also in fields like gastroenterology and gastrology. By unraveling these intricacies through scientific imagery like this one provided by Springer Medizin/Science Photo Library, we gain a deeper appreciation for our own physiological makeup.
