[QUOTE="Vince, post: 67287, member: 843"] [HR][/HR] [B]The Case for Coronary Artery Calcium CT Scans [/B]Tim Russert: Dead at 58 I was shaken by [B] Tim Russert's death from a heart attack at age 58 [/B] on June 13, 2008. As one of NBC's top newscasters, he was beloved by millions of Americans who would watch him each week on [B][I] Meet the Press[/I] [/B] , as he unrelentingly asked the tough questions to our politicians. When men (and less frequently women) die suddenly in middle-age it's almost always caused by [B] coronary artery thrombosis[/B], a blood clot suddenly forming in one of the two arteries supplying the heart muscle itself. Although the heart pumps all five liters of your blood every minute, it itself gets its oxygen and nutrients only from the blood supplied by the 4 mm diameter right and left coronary arteries that run on its surface, starting from the aorta. Heart attack caused by coronary artery disease is the number one killer in the United States and Western Europe. It causes over half a million deaths (USA) per year. Stroke is the second most common cause of death, and it occurs by exactly the same process, obstruction of the arteries to the brain. Heart attacks occur when a coronary artery suddenly plugs up. Here's how it happens. [URL]http://bobblum.com/ESSAYS/BIOMED/coronary-CT.html[/URL] [/QUOTE]
