Cardiac Anatomy - The Left Ventricle

Left Ventricle

The left ventricle is the largest and strongest chamber of the heart. This big muscle is responsible for most of the pumping action that delivers the blood throughout the body. As the left ventricle contracts, blood passes through the left ventricular outflow track, across the aortic valve and into the aorta where it is routed to smaller arteries throughout the body.
