I was diagnosed with mild luminal irregularities throughout the left and right coronary system. Can anyone please explain what this means?

This is considered having heart disease, a mild form of stenosis.

To put it in more easy to understand terms, it's an abnormal narrowing of the cardiac arteries.

The term "lumen" refers to the inside space of a blood vessel through which blood flows. An irregularity in the lumen can mean a variety of things but often refers to changes in the shape or smoothness of the artery's interior surface. This could be due to the buildup of plaque, which is a common cause of coronary artery disease.

Has your doctor suggested any treatment or dietary changes?

I have just been told I have minor luminal irregularities in my right coronary arteries and inferobasal akinesis. What are they and how is it treated? I do not see my doctor for 6 weeks. Should I arrange to go earlier?
