    When viewed via cross section however, the right ventricle seems to be crescent shaped. [3] [4] The right ventricle is made of two components: the sinus and the conus. The Sinus is the inflow which flows away from the tricuspid valve. [5] Three bands made from muscle, separate the right ventricle: the parietal, the septal, and the moderator band.

    4050. FMA. 7272. Anatomical terminology. [edit on Wikidata] The moderator band (also known as septomarginal trabecula[1]) is a band of cardiac muscle found in the right ventricle of the heart. [2][3][4] It is well-marked in sheep and some other animals, including humans. It extends from the base of the anterior papillary muscle of the tricuspid ...

  4. Right ventricular hypertrophy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_ventricular_hypertrophy

    Right ventricular hypertrophy (RVH) is a condition defined by an abnormal enlargement of the cardiac muscle surrounding the right ventricle. The right ventricle is one of the four chambers of the heart. It is located towards the right lower chamber of the heart and it receives Deoxygenated blood from the right upper chamber (right atrium) and ...

    The function of the right heart, is to collect de-oxygenated blood, in the right atrium, from the body via the superior vena cava, inferior vena cava and from the coronary sinus and pump it, through the tricuspid valve, via the right ventricle, through the semilunar pulmonary valve and into the pulmonary artery in the pulmonary circulation ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tricuspid_valve

    The tricuspid valve, or right atrioventricular valve, is on the right dorsal side of the mammalian heart, at the superior portion of the right ventricle.The function of the valve is to allow blood to flow from the right atrium to the right ventricle during diastole, and to close to prevent backflow (regurgitation) from the right ventricle into the right atrium during right ventricular ...

    Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC), also known as arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy, is a genetic condition affecting your heart muscle. It affects about 1 in 2,000 to 1 in 5,000 ...

  8. Cardiac cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_cycle

    Ventricular systole is the contractions, following electrical stimulations, of the ventricular syncytium of cardiac muscle cells in the left and right ventricles. Contractions in the right ventricle provide pulmonary circulation by pulsing oxygen-depleted blood through the pulmonary valve then through the pulmonary arteries to the lungs.

  9. Atrium (heart) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atrium_(heart)

    Atrium (heart) The atrium (Latin: ātrium, lit. 'entry hall'; pl.: atria) is one of the two upper chambers in the heart that receives blood from the circulatory system. The blood in the atria is pumped into the heart ventricles through the atrioventricular mitral and tricuspid heart valves. There are two atria in the human heart – the left ...
