Computer artwork of osteoporosis affecting bone
Osteoporosis. Computer artwork of a Scanning Electron Micrograph showing the effect of osteoporosis on bone tissue. This section through one of the vertebrae of the backbone shows the cancellous, or " spongy" appearance of bone affected by this disorder. Such bone has a reduced density, is more brittle and prone to fracture. Osteoporosis usually affects the elderly and women after the menopause. It is usually caused at menopause by a reduction in the production of the oestrogen hormones by the ovaries. Treatments include hormone replacement therapy

EDITORS COMMENTS
This computer artwork showcases the detrimental effects of osteoporosis on bone tissue. The Scanning Electron Micrograph provides a magnified image, revealing the spongy appearance of bone affected by this disorder. As depicted in this section through one of the vertebrae of the backbone, osteoporotic bone exhibits reduced density and increased brittleness, making it more prone to fractures. Osteoporosis primarily affects older individuals and women after menopause. In postmenopausal women, a decrease in estrogen hormone production by the ovaries often triggers this condition. The consequences can be severe, as weakened bones pose significant health risks. Fortunately, medical advancements offer treatments such as hormone replacement therapy to combat osteoporosis. These interventions aim to replenish diminished hormones and strengthen bones afflicted by this disease. The intricate details captured in this artistic representation serve not only as an illustration but also as a valuable tool for medical professionals studying osteoporosis. By examining microscopic photos like these, researchers gain deeper insights into the structural changes that occur within cancellous or spongy bone affected by this disorder. Science Photo Library presents us with yet another remarkable piece merging artistry and science seamlessly while shedding light on critical subjects like osteoporosis – a testament to their dedication towards advancing healthcare knowledge through visually stunning imagery.
