Question 1

what is the sequence of blood flow through the heart and vascular system?

Accepted Answer

Here you go: Blood enters through the vena cavae, passes through the right atrium into the right ventricle. The blood then goes out into the lungs and returns via the pulmonary veins to the left atrium. That blood then goes out the left ventricle to the body and returns via the vena cavae.  The order of blood vessels is great vessels, arteries, arterioles, capillaries, venules, veins and back to the cavae.

Question 3

what can cause red/dark red vascular painless lesions on one toe? ive had a few for a year and then another one appeared so its progressing. its not raynauds. i was told only that its vascular/blood flow. appreciate any thoughts?

Accepted Answer

: Painless lesions which have increased in size(plus additional new ones showing up) would be concerning to me. So you should show it to your doctor or go to see a podiatrist.
He may recommend a biopsy or take a photograph for future comparison for further growth.
Vascular lesions can be a benign Hemangioma or on rare occasions an Angiosarcoma. So I would not delay the necessary check up.

Question 4

elevated d-dimer now on two lab tests. vq scan showed no clots, calf exam showed good blood flow no swelling. still short of breath. vascular ultrasound in a week. should i still be concerned about blood clots? why is d-dimer high? so scared?

Accepted Answer

: Unfortunately D-diner is a test that helps best in ruling out clots. When positive it may reflect a variety of conditions, clots included, but ruled out in your case, you may want to check the mayocliniclabs.com page for d-dimer test interpretation.

Question 6

what does increased cerebral blood flow and volume mean?

Accepted Answer

Tumors need nutrient: When tumors grow in the brain, they make new blood vessels (angiogenesis). These vessels are not normal compared to the non-tumor vessels. As a result, more blood flows into the tumor, which allows for more tumor growth. Since there is more flow, at any given time there is more blood volume in the tumor. Occasionally, there may be so much flow that it can shunt, or divert, flow from normal brain.
