Brain and eye anatomy, artwork C013 / 4664
Brain and eye anatomy. Computer artwork of the brain from below, with the front of the brain and the eyeballs (white, one at right sectioned) at top. Nerves (yellow) include the optic nerves, the olfactory nerves (between the optic nerves), and the upper part of the spinal cord (lower centre). At left of the spinal cord is one of the lobes of the cerebellum (other lobe removed), with the brainstem also shown (above spinal cord). At bottom are the occipital lobes (red), the visual processing centres at the rear of the brain. The optic nerves cross at a location called the optic chiasma (centre), allowing the images from both eyes to be combined

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork, titled "Brain and Eye Anatomy" offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the intricate workings of our sensory system. Created by Springer Medizin/Science Photo Library, this computer-generated print showcases the brain from below, with a focus on the front section and the eyeballs at the top. The vibrant yellow nerves depicted in this image include the optic nerves responsible for transmitting visual information to our brains. Nestled between them are the olfactory nerves, which play a crucial role in our sense of smell. The lower center reveals a glimpse of the upper part of the spinal cord while showcasing one lobe of the cerebellum on its left side. Atop these structures lies an essential component known as the brainstem, connecting various parts of our nervous system. The bottom portion highlights vivid red occipital lobes—the visual processing centers located at the rear end of our brains. A remarkable feature captured here is how both optic nerves cross paths at an area called optic chiasma—allowing for seamless integration of images received from both eyes. This intricate network ensures that we perceive a unified vision. Immerse yourself in this extraordinary illustration that beautifully captures not only anatomical details but also conveys how different elements work together harmoniously to enable us to see and comprehend our surroundings.
