About this work

Description

A computer generated image showing a montage of fluorescent osteoblast cells. Osteoblasts originate in bone marrow and contribute to the production of new bone. These cells build up the matrix of bone structure and as bone is continually being reabsorbed and regenerated these are very crucial cells. This image has been computer generated using different colour combinations of fluorescently labeled osteoblast cells.
