2. Right coronary artery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_coronary_artery

   [2] [5] It may also supply 25% to 35% of the left ventricle (LV). [10] There is significant overlap of supply of the coronary arteries. [2] The right coronary artery is dominant over the left coronary artery 50% of the time, equal to it 20% of the time, and less significant than it 30% of the time. [2]

3. Coronary arteries - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronary_arteries

   The coronary arteries are mainly composed of the left and right coronary arteries, both of which give off several branches, as shown in the 'coronary artery flow' figure. Coronary artery flow Aorta. Left coronary artery. Left anterior descending artery; Left circumflex artery; Posterior descending artery; Ramus or intermediate artery; Right ...

4. Coronary CT angiography - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronary_CT_angiography

   Coronary CT angiography (CTA or CCTA) is the use of computed tomography (CT) angiography to assess the coronary arteries of the heart.The patient receives an intravenous injection of radiocontrast and then the heart is scanned using a high speed CT scanner, allowing physicians to assess the extent of occlusion in the coronary arteries, usually in order to diagnose coronary artery disease.

5. Right marginal branch of right coronary artery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_marginal_branch_of...

   The right marginal branch is the largest branch to split off from the right coronary artery. [1] [2] It often anastomoses with the nearby parallel posterior interventricular artery, which itself is usually a continuation of the right coronary artery. [3]

6. Radionuclide angiography - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radionuclide_angiography

   Radionuclide angiography is an area of nuclear medicine which specialises in imaging to show the functionality of the right and left ventricles of the heart, thus allowing informed diagnostic intervention in heart failure. It involves use of a radiopharmaceutical, injected into a patient, and a gamma camera for acquisition.

7. Atrioventricular nodal branch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atrioventricular_nodal_branch

   distal right coronary artery in around 10%. [1] right posterior interventricular artery in around 7%. [1] distal circumflex branch of left coronary artery in around 4%. [1] The right coronary artery supplies the atrioventricular node in around 90% of people. [1] [2] In approximately 2% of people, the vascular supply to the atrioventricular node ...

8. Angiography - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angiography

   One of the most common angiograms performed is to visualize the coronary arteries. A long, thin, flexible tube called a catheter is used to administer the X-ray contrast agent at the desired area to be visualized. The catheter is threaded into an artery in the forearm, and the tip is advanced through the arterial system into the major coronary ...

9. Coronary circulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronary_circulation

   The right coronary artery proceeds along the coronary sulcus and distributes blood to the right atrium, portions of both ventricles, and the heart conduction system. Normally, one or more marginal arteries arise from the right coronary artery inferior to the right atrium. The marginal arteries supply blood to the superficial portions of the ...
