Microvessel or microvasculature refers to the smallest systems of blood vessels in a body, including those responsible for microcirculation, the system of smaller blood vessels that distribute blood within tissues. Common examples of microvessels include: * Arterioles, a small diameter blood vessel that extends and branches out from an artery and leads to capillaries * Capillaries, the smallest blood vessels * Metarterioles, a vessel that links arterioles and capillaries * Venules, a blood vessel that allows deoxygenated blood to return from the capillary beds to the larger blood vessels called veins * Thoroughfare channel, a venous vessel receiving blood directly from capillary beds. It is a tributary to venules == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「microvessel」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
