The two veins of the arm that are most important for medical procedures are the median cubital vein and the cephalic vein. The median cubital vein is commonly used for venipuncture due to its superficial location and ease of access. The cephalic vein is also significant, particularly for intravenous access and in cases where the median cubital vein is not suitable. Both veins play a crucial role in blood draws and the administration of medications.
