What does this mean Hypoplasia of the basal artery and bilateral intracranial vertebral arteries?
Hypoplasia of the basal artery and bilateral intracranial vertebral arteries refers to an underdevelopment or incomplete formation of these blood vessels in the brain. This condition can lead to reduced blood flow to certain areas of the brain, potentially affecting neurological function. It may be congenital (present at birth) and can sometimes be associated with other vascular or neurological disorders. Affected individuals may experience a range of symptoms depending on the severity and impact on blood circulation.
What else can I help you with?
Mra Finding grossly symmetric flow within the intracranial internal carotid arteries and in the proximal anterior and middle cerebral arteries flow both distal vertebral arteries is demonstra?

Basilar artery is formed by the union of what two arteries?
vertebral arteries
How many vertebral arteries do humans have?
2
What two paired arteries enter the skull to supply the brain?
The anterior portions of the brain are supplied by the internal carotid arteries. The posterior portion of the brain is supplied by the vertebral arteries.
The basilic artery in the brain receives blood from what two arteries?
The left & right vertebral arteries.
Which vessel is formed when the vertebral arteries join together at the base of the skull?
The right and left vertebral arteries join together to form a single basilar artery at the base of the skull.
Passageway for vertebral arteries in cervical vertebrae?
Tranverse formamina
Provides the brain with oxygen and nutrients?
Oxygen and nutrients are provided to the brain via the carotid arteries and vertebral arteries.
What does The vertebral arteries are patent bilaterally throughout their course?
The statement "The vertebral arteries are patent bilaterally throughout their course" indicates that both vertebral arteries, which run along the spine and supply blood to the brain, are open and unobstructed on both sides of the body. This suggests that there are no blockages or abnormalities affecting the blood flow in these arteries. A patent condition is essential for adequate blood supply to the posterior circulation of the brain.
What are the two vertebral arteries?
The vertebral arteries are branches from the subclavian arteries that travel up the spine in the foramen transversarium and into the skull in the formen magnum. They fuse at the level of the midbrain to form the basilar artery and then the posterior cerebral arteries. They supply blood to the brainstem, cerebellum and posterior portions of the brain.
What level of neck does the carotid arteries bifurcate?

What blood vessel conducts blood to the head?
The major arteries involved include 1) the right and left carotid arteries, and 2) the right and left vertebral arteries.
