Abdominal aorta and its main branches- Color Doppler video:

                                                                              The above color Doppler ultrasound video clip shows the normal upper part of the abdominal aorta withe 1st branch in the abdomen- the celiac artery, pointing almost perpendicularly from the anterior surface of the aorta. The aortic branch just below is the superior mesenteric artery, descending downwards.
                                                                                     The above Doppler video shows the celiac artery with the 2 main branches of this vessel- the branch heading towards the right being the common hepatic artery and the artery heading leftwards being the splenic artery.
