Pneumonia infection, light micrograph
Pneumonia infection. Light micrograph of a section through lung tissue from a patient with bronchial pneumonia. Shown here is the blockage and breakdown of the air sacs and alveoli of the lung due to the accumulation of mucus infected with the pneumococcus bacterium (Streptococcus pneumoniae). Severe cases, where oxygen cannot get into the capillaries of the alveoli, can result in death. Magnification: x36 when printed at 10 centimetres high

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the devastating effects of pneumonia infection on lung tissue. The light micrograph reveals a section through the lungs of a patient suffering from bronchial pneumonia, offering a detailed view of the blockage and breakdown of air sacs and alveoli caused by mucus accumulation infected with the pneumococcus bacterium (Streptococcus pneumoniae). The severity of this condition is highlighted as it impedes oxygen from reaching the capillaries in the alveoli, potentially leading to fatal consequences. The magnified image provides an insight into the intricate biology and pathology involved in this respiratory disorder. With its focus on damaged tissue, this photograph serves as a reminder of how diseases can wreak havoc on our bodies. It underscores both the fragility and resilience of human health while emphasizing that even microscopic organisms can have profound impacts. As we delve into this microbiological realm, we gain valuable knowledge about bacterial infections like streptococcus pneumoniae and their impact on our respiratory system. This visual representation offers medical professionals invaluable insights for diagnosing and treating patients afflicted with pulmonary abnormalities such as bronchial pneumonia. In essence, Science Photo Library's striking image encapsulates not only scientific curiosity but also highlights the importance of ongoing research to combat diseases like pneumonia effectively.
