It carries blood to the anterior compartment of the leg and dorsal surface of the foot, from the popliteal artery. Back of left lower extremity, showing origin of anterior tibial artery before it continues on the anterior side. The anterior tibial artery is a branch of the popliteal artery. [1] .

2021年2月26日 · Click here to learn about the five lower extremity arteries that are examined in a routine arterial ultrasound. To appreciate how helpful ultrasound is in evaluating the lower extremities for abnormalities, it is important to be proficient in the basic anatomy of the lower extremity arteries.

2023年11月3日 · Arteries, veins and nerves of the leg and knee. The anterior tibial artery is one of the terminal branches of the popliteal artery. It arises below the popliteal fossa, in the posterior (flexor) compartment of the leg. However, the majority of its course is located in the anterior (extensor) compartment of the leg.

2024年6月5日 · The anterior tibial artery is the main arterial supply of the anterior compartment of the leg. The anterior tibial artery arises from the popliteal artery in the popliteal fossa and continues distally as the dorsalis pedis artery.

2024年9月27日 · Prosection of the deep anterior leg, demonstrating the anterior leg muscles and neurovascular structures. Enhance your understanding with high-resolution dissection images …

In this article, we review the basic scanning techniques of color and pulsed-wave Doppler US for the lower extremity arteries and the spectral analysis of normal and stenotic arteries on pulsed-wave Doppler US. Each lower extremity artery is visible with an accompanying vein, extending from the iliac artery to the popliteal artery.

2009年8月1日 · In logistic regression analysis with ABI <0.9 as dependent variable, stenosis in SFA, ATA, and PTA were the major independent variables to explain a low ABI in both of the legs. The distribution of stenosis differs substantially when legs are compared.

The anterior tibial artery (ATA) is the most critical anatomical structure at risk at the distal border of the posterolateral approach to the tibial plateau. This study aimed to use available lower extremity digital subtraction angiography (DSA) images to …

2017年3月22日 · Six distinct angiosomes supplied by the anterior tibial artery (ATA), posterior tibial artery (PTA), and peroneal artery (PA). However, there are extensive connections between below-the-knee arteries coursing throughout the foot and the inter-angiosome connections by choke vessels could be more important for revascularization in ischemic foot.
