Moderate accumulation of calcium and phosphorus in the splenic artery with aging and low accumulation of those in the pulmonary artery with aging
To elucidate compositional changes of the arteries with aging, the authors investigated age-related changes of elements in the splenic and pulmonary arteries, which supplied blood to contractile organs. After ordinary dissection by medical students at Nara Medical University was finished, the spleni...
