What is the vessel called that branches to form a right common carotid and right subclavian?
The brachiocephalic artery is the first major branch off of the aortic arch, it gives rise to the right internal carotid artery and the right subclavian artery. The brachiocephalic artery is also sometimes called the brachiocephalic trunk, and may also be called the innominate artery.
What is the main blood vessel that goes to the brain?
Carotid arteries supply blood to brain . Blood is supplied to the entire brain by 2 pairs of arteries: the internal carotid arteries and vertebral arteries. The right and left vertebral arteries come together at the base of the brain to form a single basilar artery. The basilar artery joins the blood supply of the internal carotid arteries in a ring at the base of the brain. This ring of arteries is called the circle of Willis. The circle of Willis provides a safety mechanism...if one of the arteries gets blocked, the "circle" will still provide the brain with blood.
