Coloured LM of occluded human coronary artery
Blocked coronary artery. Computer coloured light micrograph of a cross-section through an occluded (blocked) human coronary artery. Heart tissue is coloured purple. The coronary artery (red) lies on the surface of the heart. The outer wall of the artery (dark red) is of equal thickness. Internal to this is a deposit of fibrous plaque (lighter red, centre left) blocking a large part of the artery. The lumen (inner channel, brown) of the artery is severely narrowed, with some blood seen flowing through it. Plaque deposition in the arteries in atherosclerosis is typically caused by a high fat diet and smoking. This may cause clots to form resulting in heart attack or stroke

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases a cross-section of an occluded human coronary artery, providing valuable insight into the detrimental effects of atherosclerosis. The intricate details are brought to life through computer-coloured light micrography, revealing a blocked coronary artery in all its complexity. The vibrant purple hue represents the surrounding heart tissue, while the prominent red colouring signifies the presence of the coronary artery on the heart's surface. A closer examination reveals that this outer wall is uniformly thick and robust. However, at the center-left region lies a lighter red deposit known as fibrous plaque. This accumulation significantly obstructs a substantial portion of the artery, leading to severe narrowing within its inner channel or lumen – depicted in shades of brown. Remarkably, despite this obstruction, some blood can still be observed flowing through it. It is crucial to note that such plaque deposition within arteries is often attributed to lifestyle factors like consuming high-fat diets and smoking cigarettes. These unhealthy habits increase one's susceptibility to developing clots and subsequently experiencing heart attacks or strokes. In summary, this visually striking image serves as a stark reminder of how arterial narrowing caused by plaque buildup can have dire consequences for cardiovascular health. Through scientific exploration and education about these medical conditions, we strive towards preventing such occurrences and promoting overall well-being for individuals worldwide.
