Media Image

Name this red vessel.

common iliac artery

external iliac artery

internal iliac artery

femoral artery

Answer explanation

Media Image

For both arteries & veins of the leg there is a consistent progression based on anatomical terms & location.

1=common iliac (groin)

2=external iliac

3=internal iliac

4=femoral (thigh)

5=popliteal (back of knee)

Common iliac arteries are branches off the aorta.

Media Image

Name this red vessel.

politeal artery

posterior tibial artery

anterior tibial artery

dorsalis pedis artery

Answer explanation

Media Image

The popliteal branches into the anterior (front) & posterior (back) tibial arteries.

These arteries have sister veins of the same names.

Name this red vessel.

politeal artery

posterior tibial artery

anterior tibial artery

dorsalis pedis artery

Answer explanation

Media Image

The popliteal branches into the anterior (front) & posterior (back) tibial arteries.

These arteries have sister veins of the same names.

The posterior tibial artery is an important pulse point to assess circulation problems in the leg.

Name this red vessel.

posterior tibial artery

anterior tibial artery

dorsalis pedis artery

femoral artery

Answer explanation

Media Image

The dorsalis pedis artery is a continuation of the ANTERIOR tibial artery.

Dorsalis=back pedis=foot
