Description
Thoracic diaphragm, computer artwork. The diaphragm is a sheet of muscle that stretches across the bottom of the ribcage separating the thoracic (chest) cavity from the abdominal cavity. There are three large openings in the diaphragm that let through (from left to right); the vena cava (blue), oesophagus and aorta. The spine is at upper right and the breastbone is at lower left.
