Anterior view of the heart

This tutorial explores the heart's anatomy, focusing on the anterior view. It covers the cardiovascular system, including the heart's structure, function, and its role in circulation. The video details the aorta, its branches, the pulmonary trunk, and major veins. It also discusses the ventricles and sulci, providing a comprehensive understanding of the heart's anatomy and its importance in the circulatory system.
