Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The antecubital area of the arm is usually the first choice for routine venipuncture. This area contains the three vessels primarily used by the phlebotomist to obtain venous blood specimens: the median cubital, the cephalic and the basilic veins.
Detailed explanation-2: -The median cubital and cephalic veins are preferred for blood sampling, but other arm and hand veins may be used. The cephalic vein is located on the lateral (radial) side of the arm, and the basilic vein is located on the medial (ulnar) side.
