What does atherosclerosis cause inside the arteries?
It clogs the arteries which allows less blood to flow through that narrow space. This eventually causes a blood clot which may be fatal.

What does an artery have that a vein does not?
Arteries carry oxygenated blood; veins carry de-oxygenated blood. Arteries have much thicker muscular wall (of muscle and elastic fibres). Arteries have narrow passageway for blood; veins have a wider passageway. Arteries have higher blood pressures. Extra info. if you need it Veins have flaps of valves while arteries do not.
What is atherosclerotic calcifications of the intracranial internal carotid arteries?
When looking at a phrase like this, it is easiest to break it down into individual words, until you become fluent in reading medical terminology. Atherosclerotic refers to the build up of atheroma, (cholesterol or fat) in the arteries, that leads to the passageway through the artery becoming narrow. Calcification is the build up of calcium, causing the artery to harden. Intracranial means within the cranium (Skull). Internal Carotid Arteries are major arteries that supply the brain. So this phrase means, there are fat and calcium salt deposits within some major arteries to the brain, that have caused the arteries to become more narrow and harden.
What is coronary artery ectasia?
Coronary Artery Ecstasia is the abnormal dilation of arteries surrounding the heart. Instead of having narrowing arteries, the arteries are enlarged and then go back to normal size. The problem is the blood builds up in the dilated part of the artery and has to make its way down through the normal part of the artery This is a danger that can cause the blood to clot before it is able to move through the narrow part of the artery causing an aneurysm.
Arteriosclerosis slowly reduces blood flow through the arteries to the brain?
Yes. And to other parts of the body as well. As plaque builds up, the arteries narrow, blood pressure builds. The chance of heart attack and stroke increases the more the arteries narrow.

What is a heart cath?
This is the guided set of wire and tube that you pass through your radial artery or the femoral artery to the opening of the coronary arteries to inject the dye to see the coronary arteries. You can dilate the narrow coronary arteries as well as put the stent there.
