APPLIED RADIOLOGICAL ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -The aorta is the main artery that carries blood away from your heart to the rest of your body. The blood leaves the heart through the aortic valve. Then it travels through the aorta, making a cane-shaped curve that allows other major arteries to deliver oxygen-rich blood to the brain, muscles and other cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -The aorta is the largest artery of the body and carries blood from the heart to the circulatory system.

Detailed explanation-3: -Your main pulmonary artery and your aorta are the two great vessels that carry blood out of your heart. A crucial difference is that your pulmonary artery carries oxygen-poor (deoxygenated) blood, while your aorta carries oxygen-rich (oxygenated) blood.
