Vagus nerve anatomy, artwork C018 / 0300
Vagus nerve anatomy. Artwork of a human body from the side, showing the internal anatomy and the location of the vagus nerve (yellow). This nerve, also known as cranial nerve X or the pneumo-gastric nerve, ennervates the larynx (upper centre), the heart (not seen) and the stomach (lower right). It also ennervates some of the viscera of the abdomen, such as the intestines (bottom centre). Other body structures shown here include the trachea, the lungs, the mouth and nasal passages, the pancreas, the kidneys, the adrenal glands, the diaphragm, the rib-cage, the skull and backbone, and major arteries and veins

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate anatomy of the vagus nerve, also known as cranial nerve X or the pneumo-gastric nerve. The artwork depicts a side view of a human body, highlighting the internal structures and specifically emphasizing the location of the yellow-colored vagus nerve. The vagus nerve plays a vital role in innervating various organs within our bodies. It extends its influence to important areas such as the larynx, heart (not visible in this image), stomach, and even some abdominal viscera like intestines. This comprehensive illustration further reveals other significant body structures including the trachea, lungs, mouth and nasal passages, pancreas, kidneys, adrenal glands, diaphragm, rib-cage, skull and backbone. Displayed against a white background with stunning clarity and precision is an amalgamation of arteries and veins that supply these essential anatomical components. The photograph provides an insightful glimpse into how our nervous system intricately connects different regions within us. Created by Claus Lunau for Science Photo Library's collection of scientific imagery; this print serves as both an educational tool for students studying biology or anatomy while also appealing to those fascinated by human physiology. With its detailed depiction of internal anatomy combined with vibrant colors contrasting against a clean backdrop; this artwork offers viewers a visually striking representation of one aspect of our complex biological makeup - showcasing just how incredible our bodies truly are.
