The coronary artery fills during the diastolic phase of the cardiac cycle
Mostly during Physical Activity!
Diastole
The coronary sinus runs in the posterior coronary sulcus. In the anterior coronary sulci the stems of the coronary artery run. The circumflex branch of the left and the extension of the right coronary artery that becomes the posterior descending artery run around the coronary sulcus from front to back
