What is peripheral blood flow?
Peripheral blood flow refers to blood flow that occurs in the extremities as opposed to blood that flows to the brain, heart, lungs, and vital organs.
If the cause of erections is blood flow why do you not have a constant erection?
The cause of an erection is not simply blood flow, but rather INCREASED blood flow. When a man gets aroused, the body increases blood flow to the penis which causes the erection.
What is a word that means controlling blood flow?
Hemostasis means controlling the flow of blood.
Explain relationship between the diameter of vessels and the velocity of blood?
describe and explain the relationship between the diameter of vessels and the velocity of blood
Where does the blood flow out of you when you get your period?
Vigina
What has the most important effect on blood velocity?
Blood viscosity is the most important efect on blood velocity. Viscosity meaning how thin or thick the blood is. Velocity meaning the flow of blood. If the blood is too thick it's velocity will be slow. If the blood is thin, the blood will flow faster.
Where the velocity of blood flow is the lowest?
capillaries!
What vessels have the highest blood velocity?
arteries
What is an ultrasound technique used to detect and measure blood-flow velocity?
This technique is a form of Doppler measurement referred to as Blood Flow Imaging (BFI). It can indicate blood flow directionally in addition to measuring velocity.
Velocity of blood flow decreases if?
Viscosity increases
Do velocity of blood flow in arteries become faster in big area?
no
What is the purpose of the Transcranial Doppler?
A Transcranial Doppler is a test used to test blood flow velocity as is flows through the brains blood vessels. Through emitting a high pitched sound, an ultrasound probe is able to measure the velocity of the blood flow.
What is the yellow on my echocardiogram?
The yellow is the color flow doppler representing the velocity and direction of blood flow in the heart. Usually the brighter colors represent higher velocities of blood flow.
When is the speed of blood slowest in blood vessels?
Veins are where the blood flow is the slowest. Blood flow velocity decreases from the aorta to the arteries to capillaries.
Which blood vessel offer most resistance to blood flow?
Arterioles generally have the highest resistance because they are so extremely small.
Which part of the stream system has the highest average flow velocity?
the middle of the stream and just under the surface
The velocity of blood flow is?
slowest in the capillaries because the total cross-sectional area is the greatest
