Q

Anatomical Limits for the External Iliac Artery

25
Q

Vertebral Arteries

A
  • Paired – right and left
  • Provide blood supply to the posterior regions of the brain
  • Pass through the foramen magnum and join to become the basilar artery, which is an upaired artery that ascends along the ventral midline of the brain to connect with the Circle of Willis (a cerebral arterial anastomoses, that unites the posterior blood supply of the brain with the anterior blood supply of the brain).
