The right gastroepiploic artery (or right gastro-omental artery) is one of the two terminal branches of the gastroduodenal artery. It runs from right to left along the greater curvature of the stomach, between the layers of the greater omentum, anastomosing with the left gastroepiploic artery, a branch of the splenic artery.

Blood supply to the stomach: left and right gastric artery, left and right gastroepiploic artery and short gastric artery.[1]

Except at the pylorus where it is in contact with the stomach, it lies about a finger's breadth from the greater curvature.
