冠状动脉微循环障碍研究新进展

oronary microcirculation is the place of energy and material exchange between myocardial tissues and the guarantee of cardiac function. The structural or functional abnormalities of coronary microvascular may lead to clinical disease, which is called coronary microvascular dysfunction. The methods of detection are multiple; however, none can directly visualize the coronary microcirculation, mostly indirectly evaluating microvascular function through assessing coronary circulation. According to the pathogenesis of coronary microvascular dysfunction, the current treatments mainly aim at anti-platelet, or improving the endothelial cell function. Traditional Chinese Medicine has the advantages of multi-level, multi-target and individualized treatment. This article reviewed the structural and functional aspects of the coronary microvascular dysfunction, the diagnostic tests used to assess the coronary microvascular dysfunction and its drug therapy
