10. Brachial Arteries





Brachial Arteries. The major blood vessel of the (upper) arm. It is the continuation of the axillary artery beyond the margin of teres major muscle. It continues down the ventral surface of the arm until it reaches the cubital fossa at the elbow.  

MT's avoid this area because it is deep within the arm and branches into two smaller arteries the radial and ulnar arteries.
