Hello Rohit,
Hope you are doing well.
Modern anatomical illustration uses color both symbolically and literally, often with the aim of overlaying function on an accurate structural representation, as represented for example in the central atlases ofThe Classic Collectors Edition Grays Anatomy. The established convention of red for arteries, blue for veins, and yellow for nerves aids students of anatomy to orient themselves quickly and effectively.In vivo, however, these structures are not so clearly defined. Arteries and nerves appear white, and veins appear whitish-blue.
Hope this will helps.
Good luck
