APPLIED RADIOLOGICAL ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -The pulmonary circuit: This circuit carries blood without oxygen from the heart to the lungs. The pulmonary veins return oxygenated blood to the heart. The systemic circuit: In this circuit, blood with oxygen, nutrients and hormones travels from the heart to the rest of the body.

Detailed explanation-2: -The arteries (red) carry oxygen and nutrients away from your heart, to your body’s tissues. The veins (blue) take oxygen-poor blood back to the heart. Arteries begin with the aorta, the large artery leaving the heart. They carry oxygen-rich blood away from the heart to all of the body’s tissues.
