Diagram of Leg Veins

Diagram of Leg Veins The dark blue are the deep veins.
The light blue are the superficial veins.
See if you can find a connecting (or perforating) vein* between the superficial and deep veins. (Although the artist did not show all of them, normally there are several in the thigh and more in the calf.)
* Hint: Look half-way between the words femoral and popliteal on the right side of the diagram. The perforating vein is at right angles to the greater saphenous vein and is dark blue.
