Artery


Definition:

  • (n.) The trachea or windpipe.
  • (n.) One of the vessels or tubes which carry either venous or arterial blood from the heart. They have tricker and more muscular walls than veins, and are connected with them by capillaries.
  • (n.) Hence: Any continuous or ramified channel of communication; as, arteries of trade or commerce.

Example Sentences:

  • (3) Arterial compliance of great vessels can be studied through the Doppler evaluation of pulsed wave velocity along the arterial tree.
  • (4) We conclude that chronic emphysema produced in dogs by aerosol administration of papain results in elevated pulmonary artery pressure, which is characterized pathologically by medial hypertrophy of small pulmonary arteries.
