Blood is supplied by two large blood vessels that enter the liver. The hepatic artery brings oxygenated blood from the heart, supplying the liver's cells with the oxygen they need. The hepatic portal vein brings nutrient-rich but low-oxygen blood from the small and large intestines, stomach, and spleen.

The portal vein carries blood from other organs in the digestive system to the liver. It also carries blood from the spleen to the liver.
