Medicine in English: The Heart

The Heart:
Atrium: The blood from the body enters the right atrium of the heart.
Ventricle: The left ventricle pumps oxygenated blood to the entire body.
Myocardium: The myocardium is the thick muscular layer of the heart responsible for its contractions.
Endocardium: The endocardium lines the inside of the heart chambers and valves.
Pericardium: The pericardium is a protective sac that surrounds the heart.
Aorta: The aorta is the largest artery in the body, carrying blood from the heart to the rest of the body.
Coronary Arteries: The coronary arteries supply oxygen-rich blood to the heart muscle.
Mitral Valve: The mitral valve regulates blood flow between the left atrium and left ventricle.
Tricuspid Valve: The tricuspid valve prevents backflow of blood into the right atrium from the right ventricle.
Aortic Valve: The aortic valve controls blood flow from the left ventricle into the aorta.
Pulmonary Valve: The pulmonary valve allows blood to flow from the right ventricle into the pulmonary artery.
