Coloured angiogram (X-ray) in anterior oblique view of the left coronary artery of the heart of a patient aged 59, showing severe stenosis (narrowing, greater than 75%) of the proximal region of the artery (at top centre). This stenosis is caused by a blockage such as atherosclerosis. The patient is a smoker suffering arterial hypertension.
