title: [Possibilities of improving the diagnosis of coronary heart disease by an angiographic method].
abstract: A method for quantitative analysis of coronarograms permitting the determination of average total caliber of the coronary arteries and the angiographic coronary index is being reported. These parameters enable assessment of the degree, localization of not only segmentary but also diffuse lesions of the coronary arteries. The angiographic coronary index, which reflects the coordination of the coronary bed to the mass of the blood-fed myocardium, can be used for assessment of the relative insufficiency of the coronary blood flow.
