An epithelial tube or tree of tibes that transports blood away from the heart[modified from AEO definition]. Every claim on this page comes from the Leumas anatomy graph and carries its source.

What the artery is

An epithelial tube or tree of tibes that transports blood away from the heart[modified from AEO definition]. The atlas records it as a artery at the organ scale in the dog.

Where the artery is

It sits within the cardiovascular system. Only the system is known. The position shown carries almost no spatial information.

What the artery connects to

The atlas records 110 typed relationships for it, across 8 kinds of connection. part of arterial system.

Supply and innervation

This dataset asserts no arterial supply, venous drainage or innervation for the artery. Only a minority of structures carry those edges here, so an empty answer means nothing has been recorded — not that there is nothing to record.
