Ray is an accomplished triathlete and takes his pulse several times a day to help him obtain a full picture of his daily health. Lately, he has been struggling to find his radial pulse on his wrist, so he tried to find his pulse where his thigh attaches to the body, using what artery?

Ray would be using the femoral artery to find his pulse at the point where his thigh attaches to the body.
