In anatomy, arterial tree is used to refer to all arteries and/or the branching pattern of the arteries. This article regards the human arterial tree. Starting from the aorta:
the following are the parts
It is a portion of the aorta commencing at the upper part of the base of the left ventricle, on a level with the lower border of the third costal cartilage behind the left half of the sternum.
- posterior interventricular artery (mostly)
- SA nodal artery (in 60%)
- Right marginal artery
- anterior interventricular
- septal
- diagonal
- circumflex
- SA nodal artery (in 40%)
