Atherosclerosis: Prognosis

 
Medical Encyclopedia: Atherosclerosis: Prognosis

Atherosclerosis can be successfully treated but not cured. Recent clinical studies have shown that athero-sclerosis can be delayed, stopped, and even reversed by aggressively lowering LDL cholesterol. New diagnostic techniques enable physicians to identify and treat atherosclerosis in its earliest stages. New technologies and surgical procedures have extended the lives of many patients who would otherwise have died. Research continues.
