Frontal section of a human larynx, characterised by high resolution X-ray microtomography

Frontal section of a human larynx, characterised by high resolution X-ray microtomography on the ESRF (European Synchrotron Radiation Facility) ID19 beamline. In the centre of the image are the two vocal folds (commonly called vocal cords); the curved structures above the vocal folds are the two vestibular folds; the uniform dark grey area at the bottom of the image is the windpipe (trachea). <br><br> Caption: Frontal section of a human larynx, characterised by high-resolution X-ray microtomography on the ESRF (European Synchrotron Radiation Facility) ID19 beamline.
