Coronary artery, SEM
Coronary artery. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of an artery in cardiac (heart) muscle. Red blood cells (erythrocytes) are seen within the vessel

Blood vessel types, artwork
Blood vessel types. Artworks of the three types of blood vessels, from left: arteries, veins, and capillaries. Arteries are thick blood vessels carrying oxygenated blood around the body away from

Blood vessels, computer artwork
Blood vessels. Computer artwork of two blood vessels. Red blood cells (erythrocytes) are seen within the blood vessels. The red blood cells distribute oxygen to body tissues

Ovarian blood vessel, SEM
Ovarian blood vessel. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a section through a blood vessel in an ovary. Red blood cells are seen in the lumen, which is lined with endothelial cells (brown)

Nanorobots, computer artwork. Nanotechnology is an area of science concerned with producing mechanical entities on the scale of nanometres (billionths of a metre)

Lymph node, SEM
Lymph node. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a freeze fracture section through a lymph node, showing part of the medullary sinus

Coloured SEM of a blood clot due to an injury

Computer artwork of a blood clot
Blood clot. Computer artwork of a blood clot, showing disc-like red blood cells and fibrin. Fibrin (yellow fibres) is a long insoluble protein produced from the blood protein fibrinogen

Red blood cells embedded in tissue
Red blood cells. Coloured scanning electron micrograph of red blood cells in tissue. Blood is composed mainly of red blood cells (erythrocytes). Red blood cells are pumped to all parts of the body

Blood cells, computer artwork
