Nervous system in lower body (UEB contracted)
by RnibThis image shows the major nerves of the hips, legs and feet. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up. The image has half the lower body shown from the front on the left and half the lower body shown from the back on the right. The upper body is not shown at the top of the image. Front: The main nerve in the front of the leg comes from the top right of the image and runs down the right side of the leg. This is the femoral nerve. In the thigh there is a small branch to the right. On the left of the thigh is the lateral cutaneous nerve which runs as far as the knee. On the left side of the shin is the common peroneal nerve which is a branch of the sciatic nerve coming from the back of the leg. It splits into the superficial peroneal nerve on the left and the deep peroneal nerve on the right. Back: In the top left of the image is a complex of nerves, this is the sacral plexus which is the starting point for the other main nerve in the leg, the sciatic nerve. They come from the spinal cord in the sacrum. Just above the knee the common peroneal nerve branches right off the sciatic nerve and moves to the front of the leg. At the knee the sciatic nerve branches into the tibial nerve on the left and the sural nerve on the right.

Nervous system in upper body (large print)
by RnibThis image shows the major nerves of the body and arms. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up. The image has half the upper body shown from the front on the left and half the upper body shown from the back on the right. The legs are not shown at the bottom of the image. Front: There is a complex of nerves in the head, this is the cervical plexus which is the starting point for all nerves in the face and head and come from the spinal cord in the neck (cervical vertebrae). There is another complex of nerves in the neck and shoulder, this is the brachial plexus which is the starting point for all nerves in the neck, shoulder, arm and hand. They also come from the spinal cord in the neck and the top of the chest (cervical vertebrae and thoracic vertebrae). The main nerves in the arm at the front of the body are the median nerve, to the left and the ulnar nerve to the right. They are joined by a short nerve in the shoulder. To the left in the forearm is the radial nerve which has appeared from the back of the arm. The main nerves subdivide to supply the hand and fingers. In the chest there are a series small nerves coming from the spinal cords individual thoracic vertebrae. These divide to supply the whole chest (the small nerves are not shown). Back: There is the same complex of nerves in the neck and shoulder, this is the brachial plexus which is the starting point for all nerves in the neck, shoulder, arm and hand. They also come from the spinal cord in the cervical vertebrae and thoracic vertebrae. The main nerve in the arm at the back of the body is the radial nerve. This has a branch at the elbow which moves round to the front of the arm but returns to the back of the hand on the right. On the left of the wrist is a branch of the ulnar nerve from the front of the arm. On the back of the chest there are a series nerves coming from the spinal cords individual thoracic vertebrae. These divide to supply the whole back and some of the chest (the small nerves are not shown). In the waist area is a complex of nerves, this is the lumbar plexus which is the starting point for some nerves in the waist and the one of the main nerves of the leg, the femoral nerve. They come from the spinal cord in the lumbar vertebrae. In the area of the hips is a complex of nerves, this is the sacral plexus which is the starting point for the other main nerve in the leg, the sciatic nerve. They come from the spinal cord in the sacrum.
Number of deaths due to MRSA (large print)
by RnibThis page shows a bar chart tracking the number of deaths due to MRSA over time. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left, when the image is the correct way up. The Y-axis on the left of the page is the number of deaths. It is labelled every 200 deaths. The X-axis at the bottom of the page is time in years. It is labelled every four years. There is a bar for each year. The height of each bar gets rapidly higher as you go to the right. It peaks at 2006 and then starts to fall towards 2008 on the right.

There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up. The shoulder blade can be found at the top left of the image. Down and right is the humerus bone of the upper arm going down the page, with the triceps muscle to the left and the biceps to the right. These are attached to the radius bone at the elbow further down the page. The radius and the ulna bones stretch from the elbow to the bones of the hand on the centre right of the page. The hand is holding a ball and there are arrows showing the direction of travel of the hand as it is pulled upwards by the biceps muscle.

Red blood cells (large print)
by RnibThis page shows three images, an alveolus on the left, a red blood cell in the middle and a muscle on the right of the page. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left, when the image is the correct way up. The alveolus and muscle images are surrounded by a dashed line image border. The air comes into the alveolus through the bronchiole tube in the top right of the image. Oxygen is absorbed by red blood cells in the rounded alveolus. The red blood cell has an unusual shape as a biconcave disc. The red blood cell cross section explains this. The red blood cells transport the oxygen as ‘oxyhaemoglobin’ to organs and body tissue where the oxygen is released for use.

Respiration in cells (large print)
by RnibThis is a labelled diagram showing oxygen and glucose being carried to tissue by a capillary and waste products being carried away by another capillary. The direction of movement of glucose and oxygen is shown by arrows. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up. The diagram is surrounded by a dashed line image border. The first capillary goes diagonally across the top right corner of the page. Down and left from this are a group of cells with their nuclei shown as back dots. Arrows represent the glucose and oxygen leaking out of the capillary and being absorbed into the cells. The waste products from the cells, including carbon dioxide, are carried away by the capillary that goes vertically up the left hand side of the page.
