Etymology
The term 'venule' originates from the Latin word 'venula', which means 'small vein'. Venule was first used in the mid-19th century to describe the small blood vessels that connect capillaries to veins. These vessels were identified as key components in the circulatory system, aiding in the return of deoxygenated blood to the heart. The study of venules has since been crucial in understanding blood flow and vascular health.
