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).

CNRS Images,

Our work is guided by the way scientists question the world around them and we translate their research into images to help people to understand the world better and to awaken their curiosity and wonderment.
