Foot: Blood vessels
Product code: HC3006
-
Single Side Left or right side of a region / system / organ.
The vascular supply to the foot is designed to remain patent throughout a wide range of activities and movements, including weightbearing and gait. Knowledge of its position, branching, and territories helps explain the consequence of injury and informs safe surgical and interventional procedures. This Cast uniquely reveals the origin, position, and capacity (luminal diameter) of the blood vessels supplying the foot, their points of anastomosis, and their pattern of branching beyond named vessels.
-
Polymer injected arteries
