Heart & Blood Vessels: Your Coronary Arteries. The heart receives its own supply of blood from the coronary arteries. Two major coronary arteries branch off from the aorta near the point where the aorta and the left ventricle meet. These arteries and their branches supply all parts of the heart muscle with blood. Left Main Coronary Artery (also called the left main trunk)
Arteries of the Upper Limb. The arterial supply to the upper limb begins in the chest as the subclavian artery. The right subclavian artery arises from the brachiocephalic trunk, while the left subclavian branches directly off the arch of aorta. When the subclavian arteries cross the lateral edge of the 1st rib, they enter the axilla, and are called axillary arteries.
