It carries oxygenated blood from the lungs into the heart where the oxygented blood is then pumped around the rest of the body.
The PULMONARY vein. Pulmonary = lungs. Vein = ALWAYS carries blood TO the heart.
~pulmonary vein isolation
The pulmonary vein is the most important vein found in the heart because it brings oxygenated blood from the lungs into the left atrium.
in our body there are both, pulmonary artery and pulmonary vein
Pulmonary vein
Artery - always carries blood FROM the heart Vein - always carries blood TO the heart The vein which brings blood to the heart from the lungs is the PULMONARY VEIN ('pulmonary' = lungs). The one carrying blood away from the heart to the lungs is the pulmonary artery. Easy.
The pulmonary artery and the pulmonary vein.
The pulmonary artery carries oxygen-poor blood. The pulmonary vein carries oxygen-rich blood.
This is called a shunt. One that occur between the Pulmonary artery and the Pulmonary vein, would be a left to right shunt. So what would happen? The blood from the Pulmonary vein (having the high pressure) would enter the Pulmonary artery. The results would be that the blood just goes back to the lung for another cycle with be deoxygenated.
one is vein one is artery
How do you utilize Mimics19.0 to segment pulmonary artery and vein?
The pulmonary vein transports oxygenated blood back to the right atrium from the lungs.
