APPLIED RADIOLOGICAL ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Arteries: These strong, muscular blood vessels carry oxygen-rich blood from your heart to your body.

Detailed explanation-2: -The abdominal aorta runs from the diaphragm and ends just above the pelvis, where it divides into the iliac arteries. There are five arteries that branch from the abdominal aorta: the celiac artery, the superior mesenteric artery, the inferior mesenteric artery, the renal arteries and the iliac arteries.

Detailed explanation-3: -The largest artery is the aorta, which connects to the heart and picks up oxygenated blood from the left ventricle. The only artery that picks up deoxygenated blood is the pulmonary artery, which runs between the heart and lungs.
