Pathology of coronary atherosclerosis and thrombosis.
The process of early atherosclerotic plaque progression is characterized by the development of pathologic intimal thickening (PIT) with lipid pool that may transform into the necrotic core to form fibroatheroma, where infiltration of foamy macrophages ...

Ethnic differences in coronary atherosclerosis
The study was done to evaluate whether ethnic differences exist in the prevalence of coronary artery calcification (CAC), and to determine whether differences in calcification correlate with the degree of coronary obstruction.Electron beam tomography (EBT) can be used to quantitate the amount of CAC and assist in prognostication of future cardiac ...
