Frontal arm muscles, artwork C013 / 4584
Frontal arm muscles. Computer artwork of an oblique anterior view looking up a human arm, showing its muscles and tendons (red and white). The uppermost muscle, wrapping around the shoulder, is the deltoid. Below it are the biceps. The brachioradialis muscle is at right in the forearm. To its left are the flexor carpi radialis, palmaris longus, flexor digitorum superficialis and flexor carpi ulnaris muscles. All these muscles act to flex (bend) the upper and lower arm, hand and fingers around the elbow, wrist and knuckle joints. Muscles on the other side of the arm cause the opposite action (extension) to straighten the joints

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of the frontal arm muscles, offering a fascinating glimpse into the complexity and beauty of human anatomy. The computer artwork presents an oblique anterior view, allowing us to explore the various muscles and tendons that make up this vital part of our body. In vivid shades of red and white, we can identify several key muscles in this composition. The deltoid muscle gracefully wraps around the shoulder, while below it lies the prominent biceps muscle. Moving towards the forearm, we encounter the brachioradialis muscle on the right side, accompanied by other flexor muscles such as flexor carpi radialis, palmaris longus, flexor digitorum superficialis, and flexor carpi ulnaris. These remarkable structures work in harmony to facilitate movement in our upper and lower arms, hands, and fingers. They enable us to bend or flex these joints around our elbows, wrists, and knuckles effortlessly. Conversely, opposing muscles on the opposite side of the arm allow for extension or straightening of these joints. The image not only highlights these incredible muscular formations but also emphasizes their connection with bones through connective tissues like ligaments and tendons. It serves as a reminder of both our biological complexity and how essential proper functioning is for maintaining a healthy human body. Displayed with precision by Springer Medizin/Science Photo Library's exceptional artistry skills; this artwork provides an insightful exploration into one aspect of human anatomy that continues to captivate scientists and enthusiasts alike.
