Blood vessels
• Arteries: carry blood away from the heartArterioles – smallest
arteries , carrying blood to tissue.
• Veins: carry blood back to the heart
• Venules – smallest vein , returning blood from tissue.
• Capillaries: microscopic blood vessels .

Thoracic Aorta and major branches
• The thoracic aorta begins at the level of vertebra T5 and continue through to the diaphragm at the level of T12.
• Initially traveling within the mediastinum to the left of vertebral column , as it passes through the thoracic region.
![Page 9: Vascular structure thorax and abdomen. Almas khan Khorfakkhan hospital sharjha uae](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060107/554b6280b4c905793d8b53c3/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Thoracic aorta branches :Visceral branches : Supply blood primarily to visceral organs of thorax• Bronchial artery• Esophageal artery • Pericardial artery• Mediastinal artery
Parietal (somatic ) branches : blood to the muscles of thoracic cavity and vertebral column• Intercostal artery• Superior phrenic artery.
![Page 10: Vascular structure thorax and abdomen. Almas khan Khorfakkhan hospital sharjha uae](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060107/554b6280b4c905793d8b53c3/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Thoracic aorta branches :
• Each bronchial artery supplies systemic blood to the lung and visceral pleura.
• Each pericardial artery supplies blood to the pericardium.• Esophageal artery provides blood to the esophagus• Mediastinal artery provides blood to the mediastinum.• Each intercostal artery provides blood to the muscles of the
thoracic cavity and vertebral column.• Superior phrenic artery provides blood to the superior surface
of the diaphram.

Abdominal Aorta and Major branches
• After crossing through the diaphragm at the aortic hiatus, the thoracic aorta is called abdominal aorta.
• It formally ends at the level of L4 vertebra.• It bifurcates to form the common iliac arteries.• Abdomen aorta gives rise to several important branches.
![Page 13: Vascular structure thorax and abdomen. Almas khan Khorfakkhan hospital sharjha uae](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060107/554b6280b4c905793d8b53c3/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• Celiac trunk:-Also called celiac artery
a major branch of abdomen aorta , gives rise to the gastric artery , splenic artery , and common hepatic artery that forms the hepatic artery to the liver The right artery to the stomach , cystic artery to the gall bladder.
CHA: common hepatic artery; CT: celiac trunk; GDA: gastroduodenal artery; LGA: left gastric artery; LHA: left hepatic artery; RHA: right hepatic artery; SA: splenic artery; SMA: superior mesenteric artery

• Adrenal artery: Br of abdominal aorta ; supplies blood to the adrenal (suprarenal ) glands.
• Renal artery : Branches approximately 2.5 cm inferior to the superior mesenteric arteries and supplies a kidney.
The right renal artery is longer than the left since the aorta lies to the left of vertebral column.
![Page 18: Vascular structure thorax and abdomen. Almas khan Khorfakkhan hospital sharjha uae](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060107/554b6280b4c905793d8b53c3/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
• Gonadal artery : Supplies blood to the gonads ,or reproductive organs.
• Lumbar arteries : Supply blood to the lumbar region, the abdomen wall , and the spinal cord.
• The aorta divided at the level of vertebra L4 into left and right Common iliac artery. But continues as a small vessels , the median sacral artery in to sacrum.

Thoracic vein
• The right atrium receives all of the systemic venous return.• The major veins the chest are the superior vena cava , azygos and
pulmonary artery. • Most of blood flow into either superior vena cava or inferior vena cava.• Superior vena cava : Large systemic vein , blood from most areas superior
to the diaphragm , empties in to right atrium .
![Page 22: Vascular structure thorax and abdomen. Almas khan Khorfakkhan hospital sharjha uae](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060107/554b6280b4c905793d8b53c3/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
• Azygos vein : return blood from posterior thoracic wall to superior vena cava .
• The superior and inferior pulmonary veins return oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium.
• Inferior vena cava return blood from the abdomen and lower limbs to the right atrium.
![Page 23: Vascular structure thorax and abdomen. Almas khan Khorfakkhan hospital sharjha uae](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060107/554b6280b4c905793d8b53c3/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Abdominal veins• Inferior vena cava : parallel the
abdominal aorta. Receives blood from abdominal veins.
• This veins include the right and left common iliacs , internal iliacs external iliacs , renal veins and hepatic portal systems.
• Superior and inferior mesenteric veins return blood from the small and large intestine through the hepatic portal vein.
• Liver drains to each hepatic vein and directly in inferior vena cava.

CT Angiogram
CT Angiography is a medical exam that combines a CT scan with an injection of a contrast material to produce pictures of blood vessels and tissue in a part of body.
CT Angiography to helps diagnose a narrowing or obstruction of the arteries, an aneurysm, deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, or other vascular condition.

CT Pulmonary Angiogram (CTA)
• localize the pulmonary trunk, which is just at or below the level of the bifurcation of the trachea (white lines).
• The resulting axial CT localization image is shown on the right. An elliptical ROI is placed in the right pulmonary artery to measure the time for contrast to reach this area from the injection site.
![Page 36: Vascular structure thorax and abdomen. Almas khan Khorfakkhan hospital sharjha uae](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060107/554b6280b4c905793d8b53c3/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
CT Pulmonary Angiogram (CTA)
A picture of a heart model that displays the right atrium (RA) that receives deoxygenated blood from the superior vena cava (SVC). The blood then flows to the right ventricle (RV)) and to the pulmonary trunk (PT). These structures are also seen on the coronal CT image on the right. Also labeled are the aorta (A) and left ventricle (LV).
![Page 37: Vascular structure thorax and abdomen. Almas khan Khorfakkhan hospital sharjha uae](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022060107/554b6280b4c905793d8b53c3/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
CT Pulmonary Angiogram (CTA)
• These two axial CT images show profound pulmonary emboli. On the left the embolus almost completely blocks the right pulmonary artery (yellow arrow). Right image show an extensive saddle embolus forming in both pulmonary arteries and becoming extensive. Both of these types of pulmonary emboli are life threatening and require immediate medical attention.
Left- axial CT image demonstrate the anatomical presentations of the pulmonary trunk when normal in size, caliber, and pressure (yellow arrow), and on the right an example of a large widened pulmonary trunk (pink arrow) due to pulmonary hypertension.

CONCLUSION
We are able to understand how the circulation of blood is organized in the thorax and Abdomen.
Helps to identify vessels after injection of contrast. A good understanding of anatomy is essential while performing
angiography. Normal and abnormal distribution of circulatory system Co relation with Anatomical landmark helps to identify vascular
structures of Thorax and Abdomen precisely .

Thanks for the motivation and guidance provided by our Radiologists with out which we would not have achieved good
results.
Congrats and expecting continued best support from all my colleagues.
