Cardiovascular disease, the leading cause of With increased experience using the inter death in industrialized societies, not only nal mammary artery, these groups of sur strikes down a significant fraction of the geons eventually applied the procedure to a population without warning, but also causes larger population of patients. Eventually, prolonged suffering and disability in even the mammary artery was used in sequential larger number. Until the development of fashion to bypass more than one artery, and, heart surgery and the introduction of diag in some patients, both mammary arteries nostic techniques including cineangiogra were used. Using these new techniques, sur phy, stress electrocardiography, echocardio geons could bypass almost every area of the graphy, and myocardial scanning, the diseased coronary system except the distal treatment of arteriosclerotic heart disease circumflex branches and distal right branch was confined to medical measures that were es.
