Introduction The heart is a structure of muscle that collects blood from every part of the body that has lost oxygen and transports it to the lungs where oxygen becomes present and carbon dioxide is evacuated. Anatomy The left and right pumps, which supply blood to the pulmonary and systemic circulations, can be segmented into the…
Introduction and Location The thoracic cavity integrates a pair of conical in form organs called the lungs, which are needed for respiration. The heart as well as tissues in the mediastinum isolate the lungs from their counterparts. In a process identified as gas exchange, they serve the respiratory system by grabbing oxygen from the air shifting…
Introduction: One of the most important arteries in the lower leg is the anterior tibial artery. It gets into the front portion of the lower leg (the shin region of the tibial bone). It travels just above the interosseous membrane, a fibrous layer that divides the leg muscles and stabilizes the bones, before ending at the lateral…
Introduction The region of the neck known as the Inter-scalene triangle, or scalene triangle, is crucial to the operation of the upper limbs. The brachial plexus roots and the third segment of the subclavian artery both pass across it. The peak of the paired inter-scalene triangle points superiorly in the direction of the base of…
Introduction The Bone tissue has both stabilizing and motor activity. In terms of supplying the body’s physical structure bones allow muscles, tendons, and ligaments to connect to them, facilitating movement. Bone is a fibrous substance that contributes to metabolism, aids in motion, improves structure, and protects crucial organs. There are 206 bones in the skeleton of an adult…
Introduction The axillary artery is a crucial blood vessel located in the upper limb, playing a vital role in the vascular supply to the arm, shoulder, and thorax. It is a direct continuation of the subclavian artery and extends from the outer border of the first rib to the lower border of the teres major…
The common iliac artery is a vital component of the vascular system, playing a crucial role in supplying blood to the lower regions of the body. It originates from the bifurcation of the abdominal aorta at the level of the fourth lumbar vertebra. The common iliac artery extends bilaterally, with each artery dividing into the…
Introduction: The largest and most important artery in the human body is the aorta. It begins in the left ventricle of the heart, branches upwards right away, and moves down to the belly, where it divides at the aortic bifurcation into two smaller arteries (the common iliac arteries). All bodily parts receive oxygenated blood through the systemic…
Introduction The femoral artery is a major blood vessel in the human body, playing a crucial role in the circulatory system. A large blood vessel called the femoral artery supplies oxygenated blood to parts of the lower anterior abdominal wall and lower extremity structures. The external iliac artery emerges as the common femoral artery when…
Introduction The subclavian arteries are a pair of large arteries located below the collarbone in the upper thorax of the human body. The aortic arch provides them with blood. Blood is supplied to the left arm by the left subclavian artery and the right arm by the right subclavian artery, with certain branches also providing…
