(A) Right anterior oblique caudal view and (B) straight cranial view. Some focal narrowing of the left anterior descending artery (30%; arrow) was noted distal to the diagonal branch.

In 90% of the population, the posterior descending artery (or posterior interventricular artery) branches off from the RCA and runs from the cardiac base to the apex, reciprocal to the LAD (Figure 3).

A 1.5*10mm balloon was inflated to dilate the CTO lesion (Figure 13).From antegrade approach,the corsaire was advanced to the distal true lumen of LAD.The wire was also adjsted to the distal LAD ...

The LAD may have lower blood pressure than the LCx, as seen in the study, partly because it supplies more of the heart muscle with blood than the other artery. As a result, it could have greater ...

He also mentioned “mild bridging” of the LAD artery, with the possible cause being periodic shortness of breath coupled with mild-to-moderate stenosis." He placed me on 81 mg of aspirin per ...

Among all of the women who received RT, those with left-sided breast cancer had a statistically significant increased rate of stenosis in the coronary artery branches on the left-anterior surface of ...

The left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery, the most important, becomes almost completely or totally blocked, so the front wall of the heart isn’t getting any blood or oxygen.
