Figure 4 Mild Compression of the Right Coronary Artery

There is mild compression of a long segment of the right coronary artery between the great arteries. The left coronary artery has a retroaortic loop with no stretching or compression. (C) Selective invasive angiogram of the right coronary artery: the proximal segment was classified as normal. Abbreviations as in Figure 1.
