Right coronary artery

The right coronary artery (lat. a. coronaia dextra PNA, BNA, JNA) is one of the veins on the human head. It is one of two parallel vessels that usually join above the anterior border of the mastoid process to form the carotid artery. The carotid artery, in turn, continues through the jugular notch into the neck and chest where it divides into the right and left cerebral arteries.

The coronary artery is part of the venous system of the external carotid artery, branching at the base of the skull. The vein of the head is directed from the head to the right coronary artery
