(Image from Gray&#039;s Anatomy)]]<br /> <br /> The &#039;&#039;&#039;Proper Artery&#039;&#039;&#039; is a major blood vessel in the human body. It is responsible for supplying oxygenated blood to various organs and tissues. The proper artery is a critical component of the circulatory system, and its health and function are essential for overall well-being.<br /> <br /> ==Structure==<br /> <br /> The proper artery originates from the [[aorta]], the largest artery in the body. It then branches off into smaller arteries, which further divide into arterioles and capillaries. These smaller vessels are responsible for delivering oxygen and nutrients to the cells and removing waste products.<br /> <br /> ==Function==<br /> <br /> The primary function of the proper artery is to transport oxygenated blood from the heart to the rest of the body. It also plays a role in regulating blood pressure and blood flow, and it is involved in the body&#039;s response to injury and inflammation.<br /> <br /> ==Clinical significance==<br /> <br /> Diseases of the proper artery can lead to serious health problems, including [[heart disease]], [[stroke]], and [[peripheral artery disease]]. Diagnosis and treatment of these conditions often involve procedures such as angiography, angioplasty, and bypass surgery.<br /> <br /> ==See also==<br /> <br /> * [[Artery]]<br /> * [[Aorta]]<br /> * [[Circulatory system]]<br /> * [[Heart disease]]<br /> * [[Stroke]]<br /> * [[Peripheral artery disease]]<br /> <br /> ==References==<br /> <br /> &lt;references /&gt;<br /> <br /> [[Category:Anatomy]]<br /> [[Category:Cardiovascular system]]<br /> [[Category:Arteries]]<br /> <br /> {{anatomy-stub}}</div>
