The Arterial Supply of the Upper Limb begins with the subclavian artery, which turns into the axillary artery when it crosses the first rib. The axillary artery runs beneath the pectoralis minor and branches into the anterior and posterior circumflex humeral arteries, with the subscapular artery being its largest branch.
