Lateral ischemia refers to reduced blood flow or oxygen supply to the lateral part of an organ or tissue. This can lead to tissue damage or dysfunction in the lateral area affected by the restricted blood flow.
Scintigraphy imaging showing Adenosine-induced ischemia in the lateral wall indicates reduced blood flow to that area of the heart during stress. This could suggest potential blockages or narrowing of the coronary arteries supplying blood to the lateral wall, which may require further evaluation and treatment to prevent cardiac complications.
Ischemia is the medical term for decreased blood flow. Ischemia limits the supply of oxygen to tissues.
Abnormalities in high lateral leads (I and aVL) on an electrocardiogram (ECG) can indicate issues related to the left lateral wall of the heart. Common abnormalities include ST-segment elevation or depression, T-wave inversions, and signs of myocardial ischemia or infarction. These changes may suggest underlying conditions such as coronary artery disease or left ventricular hypertrophy. Proper interpretation in the context of clinical symptoms and other leads is crucial for accurate diagnosis.

Reversible ischemia occurs when blood flow is temporarily restricted to an area, but the tissue is not permanently damaged and can recover if blood flow is restored quickly. Irreversible ischemia, on the other hand, results in permanent tissue damage due to prolonged lack of blood supply, leading to cell death and potentially organ dysfunction.

Left ventricular strain refers to a condition where the left ventricle of the heart experiences abnormal stress or strain, often due to conditions like hypertension or heart disease, leading to impaired function. Left lateral ischemia specifically indicates insufficient blood flow to the left side of the heart, particularly affecting the lateral wall, which can result from blockages in coronary arteries. This ischemia can lead to chest pain, reduced heart function, and potentially heart damage if untreated. Both conditions require medical evaluation and management to prevent complications.
Lateral refers to the sides.
The term usually refers to a lack of oxygen in the cells of the side of the left ventricle (which is inferior/below and lateral/on-the-side of a standard electrocardiogram test. The lack of oxygen on the cellular level (also referred to as ischemia) is usually due to disrupted circulation to the heart muscle (in this case the left ventricular cardiac muscle). This is often due to a clot in the cardiac arteries which supply heart tissue with oxygenated blood. In short 'inferolateral ischemia' is a heart attack in the left ventricle.

High-lateral repolarization on an EKG typically refers to changes in the ST segment and T waves in the high-lateral leads (I, aVL, V5, and V6). It can indicate abnormal electrical activity in the heart, often associated with conditions like left ventricular hypertrophy, ischemia, or early repolarization patterns. Clinical correlation is essential, as these changes can be benign or indicative of underlying cardiac issues. Further evaluation may be needed based on symptoms and patient history.
