German term or phrase: blutdurchflossen

"...zur Aufnahme Bilder im Inneren eines blutdurchflossenen Gefäßes". Not quite sure what is meant by "blutdurchflossenen" - is the blood still present or has it literally "flowed through"? (i.e. drained?)

a blood-carrying vessel

Explanation:
is the elegant way to describe an artery or veine through which blood flows. And no, your context does not seem to have anything to do with "drained blood"
