Gefäß in der Anatomie
Capillaries are the tiniest blood vessels in your body, measuring just 5 to 10 micrometers across, and they form the final connection between arteries and veins. They matter because their extremely thin walls allow oxygen, nutrients, and other substances to pass between your blood and the surrounding tissues, making them essential for keeping your cells alive.

Kapillaren (Haargefäße) sind in der Anatomie (Histologie) von Menschen und Tieren kleinste Gefäße. Statt des dreischichtigen Wandaufbaus aus Tunica intima, T. media und T. adventitia, wie ihn größere Gefäße aufweisen, besitzen Kapillaren lediglich eine Intima mit einer Basalmembran. Neben den Kapillaren des Blutkreislaufs werden auch die initialen Lymphgefäße als Lymphkapillaren und die feinsten Luft führenden Wege der Vogellunge als Luftkapillaren bezeichnet.
