Canvas Prints from Science Photo Library
Enlarged heart, X-ray
Enlarged heart. Coloured X-ray showing a patient with left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), or enlargement of the left ventricle (lower chamber). The heart is the red mass at centre, the diaphragm is at the bottom and the horizontal bands are the ribs. The left ventricle (bottom right of heart) pumps oxygenated blood from the heart to the rest of the body. Coronary heart disease and other cardiac conditions can make the heart need to pump harder. As the heart is a muscle, it grows if it has an increased workload, leading to LVH. Treatment is of the underlying cause

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of an enlarged heart, captured through a colored X-ray. The image reveals a patient with left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), which refers to the enlargement of the left ventricle - the lower chamber of the heart. Positioned at the center, this red mass symbolizes both strength and vulnerability. The diaphragm rests at the bottom, while horizontal bands represent protective ribs surrounding this vital organ. The left ventricle, located in the bottom right section of the heart, plays a crucial role in pumping oxygenated blood throughout our bodies. However, certain conditions like coronary heart disease can impose additional strain on this remarkable muscle. As we witness in this image, when faced with an increased workload or underlying cardiac disorders, our hearts respond by growing larger - known as LVH or cardiomegaly. This adaptation is nature's way of ensuring that sufficient amounts of oxygenated blood reach every corner of our bodies. Understanding these complexities is essential for medical professionals specializing in cardiology and cardiothoracic fields. By examining false-colored X-rays such as this one, they gain valuable insights into diagnosing and treating various cardiovascular conditions. Science Photo Library has beautifully captured not only an anatomical marvel but also a visual representation of resilience and adaptability within our own bodies – reminding us just how extraordinary and delicate human organs truly are.
