Enlarged heart, X-ray C017 / 7827
Enlarged heart. X-ray of the chest of a patient with an enlarged heart and a pacemaker (top right). Cardiac diseases can make the heart need to pump harder. As it is a muscle, the heart grows if it has an increased workload. The pacemaker supplies electrical impulses, along a lead, to the heart to keep it beating regularly

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Enlarged heart, X-ray C017 / 7827" offers a glimpse into the intricate world of cardiology. The image showcases an X-ray of a patient's chest, revealing an enlarged heart accompanied by a pacemaker discreetly positioned in the top right corner. The photograph serves as a powerful visual representation of how cardiac diseases can place excessive strain on the heart, compelling it to work harder than usual. Just like any other muscle in our body, when faced with increased workload, the heart responds by growing larger. To address this condition and maintain regular heartbeat rhythms, medical professionals rely on pacemakers such as the one depicted here. This remarkable device delivers electrical impulses through a lead directly to the heart, ensuring its consistent and synchronized beating. The monochrome aesthetic adds an element of intrigue to this already fascinating image. It reminds us that behind every diagnostic tool lies countless hours of research and innovation aimed at improving human health. "Enlarged heart, X-ray C017 / 7827" is not just another commercial product; it represents scientific progress and medical advancements that have revolutionized our understanding and treatment of cardiovascular disorders. As we gaze upon this print from Science Photo Library, we are reminded of both the fragility and resilience inherent within our own bodies - inspiring awe for their complexity while appreciating modern medicine's ability to intervene when necessary.
