Coronary arteries

European Radiology, 1998
Coronary angiography (CA) is presently considered the gold standard for the assessment of the coronary arteries. However, the presence of ionizing radiation, its invasiveness and the small associated risk of morbidity prompted long ago the development of more patient-friendly imaging modalities.

Coronary artery calcium, coronary artery disease, and diabetes

Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice, 2001
Diabetes is a known risk factor for cardiovascular disease, which is the leading cause of death in the US. Most sufferers are unaware that they have coronary artery disease, and death is often quite sudden. Electron beam computed tomography (EBCT) is a non-invasive procedure that detects coronary artery disease (CAD) by measuring the amount of coronary

Coronary Artery Spasm Following Coronary Artery Surgery

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1988
Coronary artery spasm during the early postoperative period following cardiopulmonary bypass for coronary artery surgery can be an unrecognized cause of sudden, severe cardiopulmonary collapse. The literature regarding perioperative coronary artery spasm is reviewed, and methods of prevention, diagnosis, and treatment are suggested. Preoperative angina

Coronary Artery Spasm Following Coronary Artery Revascularization

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1982
Coronary artery spasm is a well-documented phenomenon in patients undergoing medial treatment. We describe coronary artery spasm occurring in the immediate postoperative period following coronary artery bypass operation. The spasm occurred in a vessel that was not operated on and that had no apparent lesion.

Arterial grafts for coronary artery surgery

Cardiovascular Surgery, 1995
Fifty specimens of left internal mammary artery, right gastroepiploic artery and right inferior epigastric artery were examined for length, diameter and frequency of atherosclerotic changes. Mean usable length was 132.4 mm for internal mammary arteries, 127.9 mm for gastroepiploic arteries and 128.4 mm for inferior epigastric arteries.

CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1952
In this article I will use the terms "coronary artery disease," "angina pectoris," "coronary insufficiency," and "heart pain" interchangeably and synonymously. Angina pectoris can be manifested by almost any kind of pain and results from a disproportion between the oxygen demand and the oxygen supply of the myocardium.
