Medical visualization showing thickened artery walls (atherosclerosis) causing impaired blood flow and thrombosis, or blood clotting. Atherosclerosis hardens and expands artery walls when an excess amount of fat gets stored within blood vessels. The blood flow pathway then narrows, allowing less blood to pass through. Lack of blood flow and thrombosis can cause serious conditions such as a stroke, heart attack, or congestive heart failure. | |
