11. Angiography, since the 1960s, has been the traditional way of evaluating for atheroma . 12. Coleman died in 1973, at the age of 44, of sudden coronary atheroma . 13. Willmott died of atheroma and embolus of the coronary artery in 1934, aged 76. 14. If the enlargement is beyond proportion to the atheroma thickness, then an aneurysm is created. 15. Angiography does not visualize atheroma ; it only makes the blood flow within blood vessels visible. 16. The cholesterol thus esterified with abnormal fatty acids is less easily eliminated and so leads to atheroma . 17. Foam cells form the fatty streaks of the plaques of atheroma in the tunica intima of arteries. 18. The older methods for understanding atheroma , dating to before World War II, relied on autopsy data. 19. Typically, such regions start occurring within the heart arteries about 2 3 decades after atheroma start developing. 20. Recombinant apo A1 Milano dimers formulated into liposomes can reduce atheromas in animal models by up to 30 %.
