The electrocardiogram expresses coronary insufficiency through its abnormalities, particularly by deviations of the S-T segment. Anatomically the evidence of coronary insufficiency is found in microscopic focal regions of degeneration and necrosis disseminated through the area which was ischemic. Clinically the expression of the coronary insufficiency is anginal pain. Coronary insufficiency may arise (1) through mechanical interference with coronary blood flow, (2) through impairment in the quality of the coronary blood as far as its oxygen content is concerned or (3) through an increase in the work of the heart with which the coronary blood supply cannot
