Coronary Microvascular Function

Myocardial ischaemia is caused by a mismatch between myocardial oxygen demand and myocardial blood flow supply, which results in myocardial suffering and, when prolonged, injury. The main mechanisms of myocardial ischaemia include atherothrombotic lesions of epicardial coronary vessels, which may result in chronic and acute ischaemic syndromes; coronary artery spasm, which is mainly responsible for variant angina; and abnormalities in coronary microvascular function, which can cause or contribute to myocardial ischaemia in various clinical settings.
