APPLIED RADIOLOGICAL ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Separates the top right chamber (right atrium) from the bottom right chamber (right ventricle). Opens to allow blood to flow from the right atrium to the right ventricle. Prevents the back flow of blood from the right ventricle to the right atrium.

Detailed explanation-2: -The mitral valve also known as bicuspid valve is located in the left side of the heart, between the left atrium and left ventricle. It prevents the back flow of blood from left ventricle to left atrium during ventricular systole.

Detailed explanation-3: -It’s located between the right lower heart chamber (right ventricle) and the right upper heart chamber (right atrium). The tricuspid valve opens and closes to ensure that blood flows in the correct direction.

Detailed explanation-4: -Blood first enters the heart’s right atrium. A muscle contraction forces the blood through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle. When the right ventricle contracts, blood is forced through the pulmonary semilunar valve into the pulmonary artery. Then it travels to the lungs.
