Abstract excerpt
Coronary arteries have a specific branching pattern crucial for oxygenating heart muscle. Among humans, there is natural variation in coronary anatomy with respect to perfusion of the inferior/posterior left heart, which can branch from either the right arterial tree, the left, or both-a phenotype known as coronary dominance. Using angiographic data for >60,000 US veterans of diverse ancestry, we conducted a...
