Anatomical Four Piece Artery Model

Anatomical Four Piece Artery Model demonstrates atherosclerosis in which the narrowing of the artery is due to a build up of fatty tissue (cholesterol) and plaque. The four stage cross-section of an artery illustrates normal artery, fatty streak, fibrous plaque, and blockage. The stages cause a decrease in blood flow, which can lead to a blood clot or thrombus.
