Is inferolateral ischemia curable?
Ischemia of any type is reversible. If ischemia is prolonged, it can turn to injury or infarction (in the case of the heart) and cell death, at which time it is not reversible or curable. There are studies with stem cells ongoing to attempt to regrow cardiac cells in heart attack scars, however, so this may not be a permanent condition forever.

How can the heart muscles be affected if the coronary artery is blocked?
If a coronary artery is blocked, the heart muscles will not get enough oxygen. This condition is known as ischemia. If the condition continues, the ischemia may lead to infarction, or death of tissue due to lack of oxygen.
What is the difference between necrosis and ischemia?
necrosis is death of cells with underlying/ or death of cells that cause inflammation. necrosis has to have an underlying injury. ischemia is decreased blood supply to tissues/ cells due to obstruction/ constriction of vasculature - indeed, this is an injury, and can lead to necrosis of cells if not resolved quickly! Note that apoptosis is programmed cell death - i.e. nucleus control is involved, and there is no inflammation - it is clean cell death! this is awesome.

Is Termination of metabolic processes is called biological death?
