Coronary artery
01
the artery that branches from the aorta to supply blood to the heart
Example
Coronary bypass surgery is performed to reroute blood flow around blocked coronary arteries, restoring adequate blood supply to the heart.
Coronary artery disease occurs when the coronary arteries become narrowed or blocked, leading to reduced blood flow to the heart muscle.
Coronary stents are small tubes placed in narrowed coronary arteries to help keep them open and improve blood flow.
A coronary angiogram is a diagnostic procedure used to visualize the coronary arteries and identify blockages or narrowing.
