neutral  Joseph Tein: From the context that the asker provides, this ACM initialism doesn't seem to have anything to do with arteries. I don't think MCA fits in this context.

neutral  Joseph Tein: ACM a laboratory that does clinical trials is more plausible, but still we don't have enough context to say that it fits. It's much less plausible that it would refer to an artery when placed next to the words Modificación Favorable - Parte II
