Human Rib Cage Anatomy Diagram - Medical Illustration #238141 (License: Personal Use)

This medical illustration depicts the anterior view of the human thoracic skeleton, featuring the sternum (manubrium, body, and xiphoid process) and 12 pairs of ribs connected via costal cartilages. The ribs are shown in symmetrical alignment, with the first seven true ribs attaching directly to the sternum, while the lower five are false or floating ribs. The image uses a soft yellow tone and clean outlines to emphasize structural relationships without clinical complexity.

Used in anatomy textbooks, online medical courses, patient education materials, and health blogs to explain thoracic structure, respiratory mechanics, or trauma assessment; matches user intent for visual learning or quick reference.
