2-unobstructed Explanation: or - not constricted, possibly - free of narrowing also - empty/void I think this refers to the status of each vessel as you have pointed out, the present state of each vessel. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 12 hrs (2008-10-22 06:26:33 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Angiography - ...Figure 20-4 shows coronary angiography, which determines the degree of obstruction of the arteries that supply blood to the heart. < The Language of Medicine, 7th edition, Davi-Ellen Chabner P. 823 Clinical Procedures Diagnostic X-Ray Angiography - X-ray imaging of blood vessels after injection of contrast material; Arteriography is imaging of arteries after injection of contrast into the aorta or an artery. < The Language of Medicine, 7th edition, Davi-Ellen Chabner P. 823 It also depends on the nature of the stenosis and its cause also, e.g., granulation stenosis - stenosis or narrowing caused by the deposit of granulations or by their contraction < Dorland's Illustrated Medical Dictionary, 27th edition p. 1580 stenosis - a narrowing or constriction of the diameter of a bodily passage or orifice < Merriam-Webster's Medical Dictionary, Springfield, Massachussetts, 2006. Lists several stenoses including aortic/subaortic stenoses among others. Also: ledig (ledigde, h. geledigd) = leeg; ledigen (ledigde, h. geledigd) vt empty...ledigheid v 1) (het ledig zijn) emptiness... & leeg - (niets inhoudend) empty, vacant < Cassell's Engels< > Nederlands Woordenbook, McMillan Publishing Co./Elsevier Nederland B.V., Amsterdam/Brussel, 1978 ledigen - to empty, to void & lediging - emptying < Woordenboek geneeskunde E-N/N-E, dr. P.L.M. Kerkhof, Derde hierziene druk, Elsevier Gezondheidzorg, Maarssen, 2003 leeg - vacant, empty, void < Woordenboek geneeskunde E-N/N-E, dr. P.L.M. Kerkhof, Derde Druk, Elsevier Gezondheidzorg, Maarssen, 2003. This relates back to Cassell's above leeg=ledig lediging - 1. depletion; 2. emptying; 3. evacuation; 4. voiding < Medish woordenbook Engels-Nederlands/Nederlands-Engels, Vierde, hierziene druk, drs. F.J.A. Mostert, Bohn Stafleu Van Loghum, Houten Diegem, 2002 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 12 hrs (2008-10-22 06:29:49 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Also the walls of the vessel in 3-ledig are irregular, uneven, also indicating some kind and level of obstruction/constriction/narrowing; parietal, irregularity -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 12 hrs (2008-10-22 06:44:34 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Make that "Nonobstructive, 2- vessel 25-50" - this is the conventional medical terminology, see below: http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/581827 CT Angiography Predicts Mortality From Coronary Disease, EBT Scans Show from Heartwire — a professional news service of WebMD ... senior author Dr Matthew Budoff (Harbor-University of California, Los Angeles [UCLA] Medical Center, Torrance) told heartwire. "We now have some evidence that the plaque we see on CT angiography and the stenosis we see on CTA actually have prognostic implications." ... Moreover, coronary artery calcium score, added to presence or absence of CAD by EBT angiography, increased the predictive power of the test. Survival, According to CTA-Diagnosed CAD* Disease severity Survival rate (%) No CAD 98.3 Nonobstructive, 1-vessel 97.3 Nonobstructive, 2-vessel 95.4 Nonobstructive, 3-vessel 93.1 Obstructive, 1-vessel 92.9 Obstructive, 2-vessel 89.7 Obstructive, 3-vessel 80 *p=0.0001 for trend "The primary results of our study reveal that the burden of angiographic disease detected by CTA positively correlates with the incidence of all-cause mortality among patients with suspected CAD referred for evaluation in an outpatient setting," Ostrom et al write. "This is the first study to demonstrate that CTA is incremental to traditional risk factors plus coronary calcium in predicting all-cause mortality. . . . |
