What instrument measures blood speed?
Doppler imaging, such as in ultrasound or in a handheld device, is used to measure blood speed. This process can be used to measure, for instance, blood flow through leg arteries, or blood flow through the placenta.
What is the flow of blood from the heart through the arteries and veins and back to the heart?
That's called the circulatory system.
What health danger results from thickening of the artery walls?
Thickening of artery walls can lead to a condition called atherosclerosis, where the arteries become narrower and blood flow is reduced. This can increase the risk of heart attacks and strokes due to decreased blood flow and potential blockages in the arteries.
Is blood flow faster in veins?
Blood flow is faster in arteries than in veins. Blood flow in veins is lower pressure.
Arteries branch into smaller vessels called?
Arteries branch into smaller vessels called arterioles. Arterioles are small diameter blood vessels that connect arteries to capillaries. They play a crucial role in regulating blood flow and blood pressure within the circulatory system.
