Blood supply to muscles, LM
Blood supply to muscles. Light micrograph (LM) showing blood supply to muscle fibers. The muscle fibers (yellow) have been teased apart to reveal the capillary bed (red) that has been perfused with dye. Each muscle fibre has its own extensively branched fine capillary network surrounding it. Capillaries are the smallest blood vessels in the body. They have thin walls that allow dissolved nutrients and oxygen to pass into the surrounding muscle cells. Skeletal muscles are under voluntary control and move the bones of the skeleton. Magnification: x800 when printed 10cm wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Blood supply to muscles" offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the intricate network that sustains our body's movement. In this light micrograph (LM), we witness the remarkable beauty of muscle fibers, delicately separated and dyed to reveal their life-giving capillary bed. The vibrant yellow hues represent the individual muscle fibers, each enveloped by an extensively branched red capillary network. These fine capillaries, being the smallest blood vessels in our body, play a crucial role in delivering essential nutrients and oxygen to surrounding muscle cells. Their thin walls facilitate seamless exchange, ensuring optimal functioning and nourishment. Skeletal muscles depicted here are under voluntary control, enabling us to move our bones with precision and grace. This image serves as a testament to the marvels of human anatomy and physiology. Photographed at an impressive magnification of x800 when printed 10cm wide, every detail is brought vividly to life. The horizontal composition adds depth and perspective while emphasizing the interconnectedness within our bodies. Whether you're passionate about healthcare or simply fascinated by science's wonders, this stunning artwork invites contemplation on the intricacies that enable us to perform everyday movements effortlessly. Display it proudly in your space as a reminder of both our physical capabilities and the awe-inspiring world hidden beneath our skin.
