Leg ligaments, artwork C013 / 4656
Leg anatomy. Computer artwork of an anterior view of a human leg, showing the muscles and tendons (brown and white), bones and ligaments (white), arteries and veins (red and blue), nerves (yellow), and lymph vessels (green). The leg articulates with the pelvis at the hip joint. The upper leg (thigh) articulates with the lower leg at the knee, and the lower leg articulates with the foot at the ankle. The main bones are the femur (thigh bone) and the tibia and fibula of the lower leg. The arteries and veins arise from large blood vessels in the groin, also the location of several lymph nodes (round, green), and the nerves from the spinal cord

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate network of leg ligaments, offering a fascinating glimpse into the complexity of human anatomy. In this computer artwork, we are presented with an anterior view of a human leg, revealing the muscles and tendons in shades of brown and white, while bones and ligaments appear in striking white hues. The arteries and veins are depicted in vibrant red and blue tones, while nerves take on a vivid yellow color. Lymph vessels can be seen in soothing green shades. The leg is shown articulating with the pelvis at the hip joint, highlighting its vital role in mobility. Further down, we observe how the upper leg or thigh connects to the lower leg through the knee joint. Finally, at the ankle joint, we witness how it links to our foot. The main bones featured here include the femur (thigh bone), as well as tibia and fibula from our lower leg. Arteries and veins emerge from large blood vessels located in our groin area alongside several lymph nodes. Nerves stem from our spinal cord. This remarkable illustration not only provides insight into skeletal structure but also emphasizes connective tissue such as cartilage and ligaments that play crucial roles within our musculoskeletal system. Overall, this artwork serves as a testament to both scientific knowledge and artistic skill by SPRINGER MEDIZIN/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY.
