Uterine lining, SEM
Uterine lining. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the lining of a uterus. This is the endometrium, a highly-folded mucous membrane that is covered with ciliated epithelial cells (not clearly seen). The endometrium undergoes cyclical changes under the influence of hormones secreted by the ovary, in order to offer a suitable environment for the implantation of a fertilised egg. Towards the later stages of the menstrual cycle it becomes thicker, with an increased blood supply. If no egg is implanted in the uterus, the endometrium is shed during menstruation.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of the uterine lining, known as the endometrium. Through a colored scanning electron micrograph (SEM), we are granted a glimpse into this highly-folded mucous membrane that plays a crucial role in reproduction. Covered with ciliated epithelial cells, although not clearly visible in this image, the endometrium undergoes cyclical changes orchestrated by hormones secreted by the ovary. These changes aim to create an optimal environment for the implantation of a fertilized egg. As the menstrual cycle progresses, the endometrium thickens and receives an increased blood supply. However, if no egg is implanted in the uterus during that particular cycle, menstruation occurs as this remarkable tissue is shed. The magnification level of x100 at 6x7cm size allows us to appreciate every fold and detail present within this female reproductive system marvel. This SEM print serves as a reminder of both our biological complexity and resilience. It highlights how essential each component is for successful reproduction and emphasizes just how intricately designed our bodies truly are. With its vibrant colors and detailed surface texture, it offers viewers an opportunity to marvel at nature's ingenuity while deepening their understanding of human anatomy.
