Posterior tibial artery runs medially[edit]

Great picture! However, there's one thing I hope could be corrected: In detailed pictures (like this [1]), it can be seen that the posterior tibial artery runs medially on the lower extremity, rather than laterally as currently seen in the picture. Again, thanks for a very contributory picture. Mikael Häggström (talk) 19:12, 28 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

you are right, in general the poesterior tibial artery runs along the back of the bone "tibia". unfortunally being acurate in this would imply that it overlaps with other veins and becomes unclear that is why in general diagrams it is moved to the outside like in [[2]] and [[3]]-LadyofHats (talk) 00:29, 30 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, it might be accurate enough for a general diagram.Mikael Häggström (talk) 07:05, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
