A
The first major arterial branch of the Aorta is the: - Innominate Artery
Which of the following arteries does NOT arise from the Subclavian Artery? - Superior Thyroid
The angular artery is the terminal part of the: - Facial artery
The arterial pulsations felt in front of the ear and just above the zygomatic arch are from which artery? -
Superficial Temporal
The CCA divides into its external and internal branches usually at the level of the upper border of the: -
Thyroid cartilage
What artery is usally the first branch of the ECA - Superior thyroid artery
Which of the following is not an artery in the circle of Willis? - Middle communicating artery
Which of the following arteries arise(s) from the ECA? - All
- superior thyroid
- lingual
- facial
- ascending pharyngeal
,The prominence of the larynx is form by the - Thyroid cartilage
(thyroid cartilage forms a prominenc that is especially visible in tall, thin, socially awkward males)
The Vertebral artery usually arises from the: - Subclavain artery
The infraOrbital artery is a terminal branch of the: - Maxillary artery
(infraorbital artery is a terminal branch of the maxillary artery. It creates one of the potential
anastomoses w/ orbital branches that can provide collateral pathways in the event of carotid
obstruction)
The vertebral arteries branch from the Subclavian arteries to unite and form the: - Basilar artery
The first intracranial branch of the ICA is the: - Ophthalmic artery
The circle of Willis receives its blood supply from which combination of arteries? - Carotid and Vertebral
arteries*
( remarkable connection of carotid and vertebral arteries: makes possible the ability of the brain to
withstand extracranial carotid occlusion w/o significant symptoms)
The 3 terminal branches of the Opthalmic artery are the: - Nasal, Frontal and Supraorbital arteries
2 of the major branches of the ECA include the: - Superficial temporal and facial arteries
Intracranial potential collateral arteries include all but the following: - Superficial temporal artery
Which of the following is NOT true regarding the ICA? - It supplies high-resistance system is false!
(ICA feeds low-resistance system)
,The 2 arteries creating the bidirectional signal observed 60-65 mm deep during transcranial insonation
of the temporal window are the: - Middle cerebral and ANTERIOR cerebral arteries*
What is the most common anomaly of the Circle of Willis? - Absence or Hypoplasia of 1 or both of the
communicating arteries
Matching:
Proximal vessel: Branch or Continuation of Vessel:
A. Innominate 1. ICA
B. Subclavian 2. Subclavian
C. CCA 3. Basilar
D. Vertebral 4. Superficial Temporal
E. ECA 5. Vertebral - A. Innominate 2. Subclavian
B. Subclavian 5. Vertebral
C. CCA 1. ICA
D. Vertebral 3. Basilar
E. ECA 4. Superficial Temporal
Helical flow w/ flow separation in the posterolateral aspect of the carotid bulb is a sign of: - Normal flow
dynamics
The most common anatomic variant of the aortic arch is: - A common origin of the innominate and Lt
CCA
The Greater Saphenous Vein: - All
- originates along the medial dorsum of the foot
- passes superiorly, anterior to the medial malleolous
- is accompanied by the saphenous nerve
- receives tributaries from all surfaces of the lower extremity
, Which of the following is NOT correct regarding the GSV? - It passes superiorly on the "Lateral" side of
the knee is false.
- it passes superiorly on the medial side of the thigh
- it enters the femoral vein
- it extends distally to the dorsum of the foot
- it has more valves in the calf thaan in the thigh
The superficial vein that sends flow to the 3 main perforating veins of the distal calf is called: - Posterior
Arch vein*
(it connects the Cockett perfs in the calf, is implicated in the formation of venous stasis ULCERS)
Boyd's perforating vein is located: - NEAR the KNEE*
*Main ones are Cockett perfs in the mid-distal calf connected by posterior arch vein;
Boyd's perfs near the medial Knee,
Dodd's perfs above the knee;
Hunter's perfs around mid thigh
The Left Common iliac vein: - Crosses POSTERIOR to the rt common iliac artery just distal to the Ao
bifurcation
- LT Common Iliac Vein is medial to the artery, The vena cava is to the RT of the AO, thus the Left venous
system must cross some arterial structure to communicate w/ the Vena Cava!
From this cross-sectional diagrahm of the thigh, reading from superficial to deep, identify the vessels
marked: - GSV, SFV, PFV* image
The brachial veins connect the: - Ulnar & radial to brachial to Axillary veins*
Of the following vein segments, which is imaged LEAST commonly? - Distal DFV
-BC of its depth, the distal deep femoral vein is usually very difficult to image
