Coloured computed tomography (CT) scan of the human heart highlighting two of the heart valves (green), which are responsible for controlling the direction of blood flow. The tricuspid valve (left) and mitral valve (right) are shown. These valves allow blood to flow from the atria, the upper heart chambers, to the ventricles, the lower heart chambers. They also prevent its flow in the opposite direction. | |
