Major arteries and veins are often located near bones for several reasons, including protection and structural support. Bones provide a sturdy framework that helps shield blood vessels from injury, especially in areas subject to impact or stress. Additionally, the close proximity facilitates efficient blood supply to the surrounding tissues and organs, ensuring they receive adequate oxygen and nutrients. Furthermore, the presence of bones helps anchor the vessels, maintaining their position within the body.
What else can I help you with?
How do veins and arteries enter bone?
Veins and arteries don't enter bone. They are outside of bones. The only thing inside bone is bone marrow.
Where are the white blood cells found?
In bone marrow (where they are initially formed), in veins, arteries, capillaries, and then into the tissues of the body.

What is the worst kind of fracture?
Probably in the Femur. Or the bone in your thigh. It's the strongest bone in your body, and its near some major Veins and arteries. If its broken it can kill you. Fracturing or breaking the femur is probably the most painful break as well, as it is the strongest bone, and its surrounded by a lot of muscles that may contract with the pain.
Name the blood vessels of the body?
There are four main types of blood vessels in the human body. There are arteries which are elastic vessels that transport blood away from the heart. Then there are veins which are elastic vessels that transport blood to the heart. Next, there are capillaries which are extremely small vessels found within the body tissues that transport blood from the arteries to the veins. And last, there are the sinusoids which are extremely small vessels found in the liver, the spleen, and in bone marrow.
Which blood vessels are associated with a hole in the shaft of long bones?
Diaphysis means the shaft of a long bone. Thus, it would probably be: diaphyseal arteries and veins
Round or oval opening through a bone?
Foramen. Foramina in the human body typically allows muscles, arteries, veins, nerves and other structure to connect the body.
Does a caplillary have a pulse?
No, they don't.Out of the 3 blood vessels: veins, arteries and capillaries, only the ARTERIES have a pulse. This pulse occurs because of the method the arteries use to pump blood. When you feel for a pulse on the neck, wrist etc... you are pressing the artery against bone which is how the rhythem is felt. Hope this helped :)
What is roadmap on a C arm machine used for?
It's used when the surgeon needs to check the vasculature (arteries/veins) during a surgery case. Regular c-arm radiologic fluoro lets one see bones and surgical hardware being placed in bones during replacements or rebuilding of a damage bone or bone joint. Roadmapping on a c-arm is also fluoro but allows one to see the arterial and venous flow to see if there are any abnormalities in the arteries or veins.

Cardiovascular system is made up of?
The cardiovascular system consists of:The heart (the pump)The blood vessels (arteries, capillaries and veins which form a network around the body)Blood (fluid medium)
What are the sources of cutaneous pain and deep somatic pain?
Cutaneous (originating in the skin of subcutaneous tissue, such as a shaving nick or paper cut), deep somatic pain (arising from bone, ligaments and tendons, nerves, or veins and arteries).
