The Circulatory System
|
The Circulatory System
is composed of the Heart and Blood Vessels.
It
consists of many different cell types that must
work together as a single unit in a very specific way
in order to efficiently pump blood through the body and
keep us alive. The electrical and mechanical portions of
the circulatory system must work concurrently, or else
there is pathology.
Below is
my collection of notes on the Circulatory System from medical school.
Each lecture is followed by a brief description of it's
contents. However, there are many diseases covered
other than those listed. If you are looking for
something specific, you can search MedSkool.Net to find
it.
