Human Body > VI. The Arteries > The Brachial Artery 4b. 2. The Brachial ArteryFIG. 525– The brachial artery. (A. Brachialis) The brachial artery (Fig. 525) commences at the lower margin of the tendon of the Teres major, and, passing down the arm, ends about 1 cm. below the ...
The largest artery in the human body. Due to its size, the Aorta plays a significant role in systemic circulation. 5 Artery Any of the muscular-walled tubes forming part of the circulation system by which blood (mainly that which has been oxygenated) is conveyed from the heart to all parts...
of the lateral body of the gastrocnemius and soleus muscles, followed by incision of the deep investing fascia in lateral to tendocalcaneus. The flexor hallucis longus muscle is retracted laterally, and the fibula is palpated as a landmark running immediately lateral to the artery.134Up to 15 ...
As the longest, most voluminous, and strongest bone of the human body, the femur consists of a tubular shaft, hemispheric head, and bicondylar distal end. Theanatomyof thegreater trochanterdeserves attention because it serves as an important landmark in the treatment offemoral shaftfractures. In...
Body MR Angiography Milind Y.DesaiMD,David A.BluemkeMD, PhD, inMagnetic Resonance Imaging Clinics of North America, 2005 Thecarotid arteryhas become the most common target vessel for MR imaging ofatherosclerosis(seeFigs. 1–3). This application has become widespread because of the use of phased...
Artery, in human physiology, any of the vessels that, with one exception, carry oxygenated blood and nourishment from the heart to the tissues of the body. The exception, the pulmonary artery, carries oxygen-depleted blood to the lungs for oxygenation an
In the human, retinal capillaries pass only as far as the sclerad margin of the inner nuclear layer, the outer retina being normally avascular. Capillaries are most dense in the macula but are absent from the fovea itself (capillary-free zone 500 µm in diameter), which is thus depende...

Middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) is the standard technique of vascular occlusion used in models of cerebral infarction. Similar to human MCAO, experimental MCAO produces a large cortical and subcortical infarct ipsilateral to the occlusion. As described above, little work has been p...
