Angina Picture
Angina pectoris is the result of a lack of
oxygen supply to the heart muscle, due to a reduced blood flow around
the heart's blood vessels. This lack of oxygen to the heart is known as
myocardial ischemia. Angina pectoris is a common symptom of myocardial
ischemia (most often chest pain). People with coronary artery disease
are most often affected by angina.
