Coronary Artery Disease
What is Coronary Artery Disease?
Coronary artery disease is the narrowing or blockage of the coronary arteries, the arteries that bring oxygen rich blood to the heart muscle. This narrowing or blockage is caused by atherosclerosis (sometimes referred to as “hardening” or “clogging” of the arteries), which is the buildup of cholesterol and fatty deposits (plaque) on the inner walls of the arteries that restricts blood flow to the heart.
