Diagram - Blood flow
an incompetent mitral valve allows the retrograde flow of blood from the left ventricle into this structure
left atrium
the bicuspid (mitral) valve separates these two structures.
left atrium and left ventricle
a stenotic (narrowed) left semilunar valve causes hypertrophy of the myocardium of this chamber.
left ventricle
blood flows through the left AV valve into this structure.
left ventricle
blood flows through the mitral valve into this chamber
left ventricle
the aortic valve separates the aorta from this structure
left ventricle
blood is pumped through the pulmonic valve into this structure
pulmonary artery
blood is pumped through the right semilunar valve into this structure
pulmonary artery
the pulmonic valve separates the right ventricle from this structure
pulmonary artery
the right ventricle pumps blood into this structure
pulmonary artery
blood flows through the right atrioventricular (AV) valve from this chamber.
right atrium
the superior and the interior vena cavae empty blood into this structure
right atrium
the tricuspid valve separates these two structures
right atrium and right ventricle
a stenotic (narrowed) pulmonic valve causes hypertrophy of the muscle of this chamber
right ventricle
blood flows through the tricuspid valve into this chamber
right ventricle
the left ventricle pumps blood into this structure
aorta
the pulmonary veins empty blood into this structure
left atrium
this separates the two pumping chambers
